Ready Made Outfit: Outdoor Summer Party

The sun is out, and we all know what that means: more barbeques
and skimpier clothes. If you’re physique isn’t quite ready for that bikini, opt for
a white minidress, accessorize it with a smile, and get ready to chow down.
Just be careful not to spill that pesky barbeque sauce; it won’t match with the rest of your girly outfit.

"Outdoor Summer Party" Fashion Formula = White Eyelet Dress + Gold Necklace + Chunky Platforms + Printed Tote.

just because you don’t want to mimic the Queen Mum doesn’t mean you should look
unpolished. Our summery brunch outfit is simply sublime for its mix of casual and chic.  Cheers!
