like buttah.

talk about floral and chiffon overload
in this full-length dress.
hideous on the hanger, but i saw potential. 

it needed some kick a$$ element,
but i wanted to keep the feminine vibe.
enter motorcycle jacket.
tough.
in the softest, buttery-est, tan leather.
sweet.

dress and jacket from macy's.
to my friend, d, who gave me the

I love this look! I won't/can't personally wear an ultra long dress like this (it'd completely drown me.) but you look great. That jacket completes the look!

You look amazing. I've tried on a few long dresses and they look awful on me but maybe you can point out a few tricks. Do you think they need to have pattern?

Stacey Kay said...
