I was so excited to style this dress when I got it from Spotted Moth! I’m so in love with it. I added the belt to cinch in the waist more and the blue wedges for a pop of color. It’s cutesy and frilly, but the color and the print adds some edge, which I love. This will be my go to dress to wear if I have to attend any weddings or similar functions this summer.

Since I’m lazy and don’t like photoshopping, I decided to just show off my bruises and my Hello Kitty band aid. On Friday I participated in my first kickball game for our team, MBC Ballers, which consists of my supervisor, other colleagues and a variety of super awesome cool people. I tripped and fell while practicing kicking the ball and running to first place and messed up my knees pretty badly. When I fell, a dust cloud arose and I laid face down, too embarrassed to emerge from the ground. It was at that moment an unknown person shouted, “THIS ISN’T ROLLER DERBY!” Haha! My legs are so attractive right now with the bruises, scrapes and 3,012 bug bites.
I bring the sass.
This is the alley area behind my fab loft apartment. I come back here if I’m too lazy to venture off any farther, plus I like to look at everyone’s cute patio out of jealousy. Since I’m on the third floor, I don’t get one! On the bright side, my apartment faces downtown Lansing so I have cute view of a park and in the distance I see our capitol building.

Those blue wedges are amazing!!! It must not be too terribly humid/hot where you're at because I'm pretty sure I would die in them right now ๐

Awesome wedges! I love how you styled the dress.
Lainey says
That dress is fantastic. I'm a sucker for anything one-shouldered. And the brightness of the blue wedges really amp up the outfit.

I love the dress and shoes, amazing splash of color. And I love Hello Kitty so the Band-Aid is just as fashionable to me lol. Those are the only ones I really use unless I get a bad scrape. At least you had fun though right? Great post!

Everything is lovely! The print and cut of the dress, the pairing of it with the bright blue shoes, the simple accessorizing…even the band aid gives it that…je ne sais quoi. Hahaha.

Wow…those boots are amazing. I think the hello kitty adds a touch of sophisticated flair to this outfit…very important inclusion I think.

That dress is perfect! The wedges would be way too hot for me in summer though, but I like the colour contrast.

Seriously, the dress is so beautiful and it looks so so prettier on you with those accessories! Loved it! Oh I have black wedge ankle boots, similar to yours but I can't wear them in summer, I really want to but, well, how do you feel wearing them in summer? I don't really wish to wear them in a rainy weather either!!! Oh girl!!!

Love the dress, I've been into really pattern-y summer dresses as of late. Something about the pattern gives some extra oomph that lets me slack on accessories and proper shoes if the weather is feeling sticky and I'm feeling lazy. (oops, I think as a style blogger that's one of those things you think but aren't supposed to admit!)
tess says

AndiPants says
The Hello Kitty bandaid really adds to your outfit! Haha! I like that you left in your bumps and bruises. I'm pretty clumsy and always banged up.
A.Co says

Your legs, look amazing, I honestly can barely see any of the bruises! I have way more bruises on my legs and that's all just from being a giant klutz.
Just rock the bruises, it makes you look like a badass, I like it.
