Being dressed and ready to head out the door in a matter of minutes is something I can only ever achieve when I can reach for something like this striped dress, made of a poly I could not wrinkle if I tried, yesterday's accessories, and four minutes or less of makeup.
I will admit to putting some effort into my hair here (how I wish this just 'happened') but under most other circumstances, a messy bun would have sufficed.

Loooooove the dress! Such a nice simple piece for Summer. I agree, I do like Summer for the simplicity but I much prefer all my sweaters :D

What a fabulous dress. I love the stripes, and the silhouette is great on you. And yes, your hair is amazing, no matter how much time you spend on it!
ReplyDeleteLove that shirt dress! Despite the heat, I do like that it's totally acceptable to throw on a dress and run in the summer. You are getting so much use out of those shoes! They were a perfect pick for your wardrobe. You obviously know what works for you really well.
ReplyDeleteFantastic dress and beautiful smile in that last picture!
ReplyDeleteThat dress is cute Lydia! Beautiful pictures. Love your sandals.
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice dress on you and it looks so comfy that you could wear it forever. . . Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYou have the best dresses! I love every single one of them!

I am all about simple during the summer! It is too hot for anything complicated. This dress is so adorable, and it looks amazing on you!

So thanks for reminding me that I have an almost exact copy of this dress in MY closet, with baby blue in place of navy blue stripes!
ReplyDeleteLooking great, as usual, btw!
These photos are so cute! Getting ready quickly is something I've had to get down to an art thanks to my demanding job - but that doesn't mean that I can get fully ready and out the door in four minutes. I just have two routines; one for days when I need to go, go, go and one for when I can take my time. And sometimes, the simple one is best. It certainly worked well for you here :)

PS: If only our hair did things like this on its own! Dreams.
I really like that dress! It is so flattering on you! I love an outfit that doesn't require tons of time (rarely happens for me, especially in the morning...)

I'm definitely liking that blue ring. It kind of resembles a mood ring to me. :] // itsCarmen.com ☼
ReplyDeleteAn unwrinkle-able dress?! Tell me more, tell me more! The stripes on that are absolutely dreamy and perfect for summer. Navy stripes win over black ones, I say. :)
ReplyDeleteLove that little shirt dress, you look darling :)

You look so beautiful in this dress! You've nailed exactly why I love summer: easy dresses! Getting dressed in the winter isn't as fun when you have to add layers and tights.

ReplyDeleteAwww...that dress is perfect! Happy summer, lovely. xo
ReplyDeleteYay for wrinkle free dresses! All of my cotton ones are a wrinkled mess from being in my suitcase and when the power was out I couldn't iron them! And that dress is super cute too. Striped dresses are a must for summer!
