I found this beautiful rose garden dress at Forever21 and I thought I’d make it even more beautiful by adding some accents to create a look for less ensemble. I have actually re-discovered my love for belts these past few weeks so this outfit turned into a belted dress.
Rose Garden Dress, $24.80
Black Wide Belt, $8.80
Black Gladiator Platform Pumps, $19.99
Multi Snake Chain Necklace, $6.80
Rhinestone Stud Hoop Earrings, $6.80

The belt and gladiator pumps gave the usual feminine garden dress a bit of an edgy and modern vibes. I like it, so I hope you do too.

I picked this Classified White Gladiator Flats ($18.99) instead of a black pair because I think it would look great with bright colored sundresses. I already have a pair of black gladiator flats from CATO anyway. I had to educate my husband on the name of the shoes because when I asked him to take a picture (2nd image) he called it as “some Roman s**t“. I informed him that these types of shoes …read more

It’s really the last thing any of us should feel or do.
That statement gave me a major epiphany. I’d probably get some eye rolling from some of you for sharing this but I …read more
