Solo Style: The More Than Perfect Summer Dress (I’m Not Exaggerating)

Welcome to this Solo Style post, where I am so so excited to be sharing with you one of the best summer dresses I have EVER purchased!  This beautiful blue and white striped J. Crew maxi dress is light and airy, and has a cute ribbon you can tie around your waist in a bow.  The top is form-fitting, while the skirt is tiered, full and flowy.  It is absolutely gorgeous and so photogenic that it was hard for me to delete pictures because this dress really is the center of attention.  No accessories were really needed, but I added simple gold earrings and bangles along with gold gladiator sandals.  I also paired a cute lil’ box floral purse with the dress to finish off the look.

When I first picked out the outfit, I wanted a subtle accessory that added to the look and didn’t take away from the dress.  The floral box purse my grandma gave me did exactly that, and the mix of prints looked super stylish.  The gold hardware blended in perfectly with my gold earrings and bracelets.

This look made me feel very elegant and it’s crazy how one piece of clothing and a few small additions can make you feel and look so put together!  I hope you enjoyed and that this style post gave you a few ideas and some inspo for your own summer style.  Thanks for reading and here’s the read of the week: How to be a #GIRLBOSS by itsgeorgiaxoxo.
