I’m not one to avoid making a statement, in both clothing choices and daily conversation. My mother can attest to this by her “ALISSA!” ‘s in shock and horror as I state my mind bluntly (and in my opinion hilariously) and sideways glances at some outfits which secretly say “Are you sure that works?” So when I snagged this maxi dress I knew I needed to have it. Bold? Yes. Comfortable? Yes! I was sold instantly. Plus it’s ridiculously fun to wear because you can twirl like a little girl who is wearing a new spring dress. Don’t even pretend you don’t remember twirling around in your new dresses as a kid. Don’t. If you didn’t well, sorry. You missed out on some great memories.
Dress: Tulip (exact)
Sunglasses: Tulip (sold out)
Bracelet: H&M (sold out)
Necklace: C/O Onecklace
I specifically remember competing to see whose dress would spin the best. Naturally I won this competition. Either because I actually had a dress that spun magically like a Disney princess through a fairy tail land to her prince or because I was louder than everyone else so therefore everyone just decided to let me win. Either way, I won something which is quite an achievement for me. Thank goodness I decided to go for those dresses that were bold, even as a kid.

That dress is absolutely gorgeous. I absolutely love the style of it. Both a maxi and a wrap dress and I adore both. The print is bright and happy too. I am pinning it in the hopes that my tailor can do a similar one for me. Your necklace and bracelet are so pretty also.
You look gorgeous for Spring, Alissa.

Twirling around, getting dizzy and competing to see which dress spins the best, is the absolute best things about childhood. I miss it. 🙁

Bold is right, but this is so fun! I swear the cut was made for you, and I love the instant glamour.
