My Favorite Way to Wear Dresses

Dresses are sometimes a hard thing to fit into my every day life. Having a two year old can mean that most days I reach for my trusty leggings (these are my fave) instead of a flowy maxi dress. It's just more practical. However, sometimes you come across a dress that you can't pass up. I snagged this embroidered beauty in a Zara while we were in London and I just couldn't walk away from it!

If you've followed me for a minute you'd know that pink and florals are not really my jam but I am someone who thinks that opposites attract when it comes to fashion! I love pairing feminine pieces with edgy accessories and what better way to toughen up a pretty pink dress than with an awesome moto jacket (I love this one)!?

These boots are magical because they go with everything, can be dressed up or down, and they add an element of drama to literally any outfit whether it be a t-shirt and jeans or a fun dress. I also linked up a pair with no heel for the practical people reading this (even though the heeled booties are incredibly comfortable). They've definitely been on repeat all season but I do have a habit of pairing them with pink just for the contrast - as seen in this post!

What's your favorite way to wear dresses?!
