a little red dress

cardigan: material girl by madonna, macy's
necklace: nordstroms
dress: thrifted
shoes: thrifted

alright.  open and ready for input on this one.  i'm just not sure.  i picked this little red dress up for $6.50 during my thrift shop and i sorta loved it, especially the islet lace touch on the hem. i'm a curvy girl, and the dress has lines that are nice for a figure like mine.  but as i look at these pics.. i'm just not sure.  did i dive a little deep into the whole nautical feel?  do we like the dress but not the package as put together?  not sure.  i fashioned this for the office..  {and pics are taken after 8 hrs behind the desk, thus the wrinkles} .. i think i'd like to try it again as casual wear with some tan wedges and see... ?

LOVE this dress. I'm also secretly sad that it is thrifted and not from a store, because I have the same body type and I would rush out to buy it. WORK IT!

I think the entire look is super cute as is. I think the dress would look great with tan wedges too.
