Long Black Dress with Espadrilles

01

One can never have too many black dresses!  I never get tired of putting on a black dress and wearing it with anything that feels right at the time.  Here, I’m wearing long black dress, paired with espadrilles by Stuart Weitzman and mirrored Karen Walker Sunglasses.  I’m also wearing statement earrings by a mother/daughter jewelry company called Allie Beads!

I’m still on Bald Head Island enjoying time with my family and soaking in the beautiful sun.  If you happen to be here, you can find Allie Beads at a little shop on the island called Room Service

      Thank you Cheryl! I wish I could find the exact link…I know you understand, but I looked everywhere! The Michael Stars one that I linked is great! Hope you have a great week!

    Well, if I looked as good as you in a long black dress I think I’d wear one everyday! Definitely something chic to add to my wardrobe, long dresses are generally too long on me, but I can always hem one up. 2 inches seems to be the standard length adjustment for me, but sometimes 4, how do you handle the extra length on things, or do the shoes help?
    Glad you’re enjoying your vacation.

      Hi Heidi

      This dress was perfect because it wasn’t too long…I can actually wear it with flats and it’s fine. I am short – 5’4" so usually I have to hem long dresses as well. I wish I could have found the same dress to link, but unfortunately I couldn’t. Sometimes with boutique shopping it goes that way. The brand is FifteenTwenty just in case you run across it anywhere. I do wear heels, especially espadrilles in the summer! I hope your summer is going well and that you’re enjoying the time with your family.

    This is so pretty, love the ease of the style and the sexy slit at the front to show your shoes! I am a big espadrille fan and those are great. Hope you had a wonderful time at BHI, we need to go back there!
    thanks for linkiing!
