Thakoon for Target and the Tiffany Blue

This past Sunday was my cousin's 21st birthday, which we've been looking forward to for weeks! My auntie had planned the entire event, picking out gifts, wrapping, and even little chocolate favors- all in a Tiffany's Blue colored theme. There were even a few pretty pieces from Tiffany's for her, too! I didn't know if I could share photos from the party without getting everyone's approval first, so I decided to show you a couple of the beautiful gifts and favors that my auntie had arranged. 

The dress, which is Thakoon for Target, is a cotton, batik-print shirtdress. The colors are actually quite complicated and vivid in person, mixing dark purples into pale blues. I had picked up a belt that serendipitously ended up being complimentary to both the dress and the party colors. So matchy-matchy; I love it!

Day 10: Paisley Mini Go-Go Dress

 

I've spent the entire day indoors shooting photos for a shop update that's been a long time coming now. This angel sleeved Go-Go Dress is really loose fitting and comfy, but I can't really imagine it with anything other than boots. What will I do come summertime? The hat and the boots seemed to go with each other effortlessly, and since 'effortless' was sort of the theme of the day I didn't look much further.

Floppy Hats and Seventies Dresses

Like every girl I know, I've been on the perennial hunt for a decent, wide-brim, floppy hat. You'd think it would be an easy find, seeing as they are pretty much in every retail store these days, but much to my chagrin I always seem to find something about them a little off. I had pretty much abandoned my search until this weekend, when I wasn't even on the hunt (you know the story), and I found this vintage one. It had that authenticity I had been looking for: not too big, certainly not too small, and even a bit Spy vs. Spy. I love it!
I've got to mention the dress while I'm at it, as it is pretty sensational and Seventies, too. I couldn't resist its electric blue allure, and as you've probably ascertained, I have a thing for flowy, comfortable, day-to-day dresses (secretary dresses or not, I dare say!). And the boots? Heck, you know I'll be living in them for as long into the summer as I can!
