I’ve professed my love for slip dresses quite a bit lately, and with it being so damn hot this week this little pink slip dress has been a favorite look of mine! No matter what the weather is like outside though, there are actually tons of ways to wear a dress like this. You could easily throw a white t-shirt on underneath to dress it down and “cover up” a bit, you could throw on a leather jacket or a long coat, and you can pair it with just about any shoe (sneaker, heel, sandal, boot, whatever really). I’m not sure what possessed me to buy a blush pink slip dress, it seems so risqué for me, but I’m actually glad I did – every now and then you gotta step outside the box and surprise yourself.
Stepping outside of your comfort zone is kind of the key to style success isn’t it? I am constantly trying things on that I’m unsure of on the hanger, and for the most part I have to say a lot of the things I’m unsure of at first glance end up being some of my favorite pieces. I am still unsure of whether or not I can actually pull off a slip dress like this (I am aggressively hiding a food baby in these photos), but the positive comments I’ve received and the fact that it makes me feel on trend really puts things into perspective. I dress for myself, as should all of us. I challenge all of us this Fall to find that thing that scares us but we can’t help but be drawn to and give it a try! You won’t die from a fashion faux pas, and if it brings you any joy what-so-ever, well then, news flash – you’re doing it right.
