Cotton Fit-and-Flare Dress - $49.98, White House Black Market
This dress was featured in In Style magazine, and I think it is a perfect LBD that would be flattering on a lot of people. And it is now significantly reduced from its original price tag of $158. Definitely worth checking out!

Daily Outfit: Wedding in the White Mountains
This is what I wore to the wedding I went to in NH this past weekend. I had initially planned on wearing a more colorful dress, but once I got there, this dress just went better with the venue and what everyone else was wearing.
Lace Sweetheart Neckline Dress, $25, White House Black Market Outlet- similar here for $40 at Lulu’s
Cropped Cardigan, Ann Taylor (?? Bought it so long ago!)- similar here for $16 at Target
Chandelier Earrings - given to me by @orangutannie- similar here for $15
Red Bow Pumps, Michelle D, $40, purchased at Dillard’s- similar here for $16 at GoJane
So you can get all the items for this look for under $100!

So glad I bought another maxi yesterday - I put on this one from White Black today and it reminded me how great a day to night look a maxi can be. I wore this to do errands and am keeping it on as my evening look for a roofdeck party :)
