I wish I could say the purchase of this swiss dot lace dress was planned.
But it wasn’t. Although, I must say, the purchase of this sweet little swiss dot lace number is certainly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my closet. However, I must confess that I actually bought this swiss dot lace dress on a complete whim! Here’s the story…
As you all know, I was in Milwaukee a few weeks ago for one of my high school girlfriend’s wedding shower + bachelorette weekend. Man – was it an absolute blast! I flew in with my best gals that Friday night and as you can imagine, the wine didn’t stop flowing until we left Sunday morning. Sidebar: Don’t you guys just love when you’ve hit that age in your adult life and your drink of choice not only leaves you feeling chill AF, but the sound of “I’ll take that carafe of wine, please” somehow makes you feel like one classy B? #Winning
Fast forward to post-wedding shower, and I was NOT feeling satisfied with the clothing options I brought along for the bachelorette portion of the weekend; go figure. Of course, me being me, the night we arrived I had actually spotted an Anthropologie located just 4 blocks from our hotel. Score! My girlfriends being the absolute saints they are, agreed to completely save the day. {#Blessed} On the way back to the hotel, these saints of mine did the ‘ol drive by where I officially had 20 minutes to tuck ‘n roll out of the car, try on and buy the dress, and be back to the hotel to start the bach night. Yikes! For those that know me, it’s known that time management is a skill I’m always striving to work on. Sooo needless to say, the pressure was on to get my rump back to the hotel before another night ‘o wine commenced.
Guys, I am so pumped to share that I. Did. It. AND! I was still ready for the night with time to spare. I KNOW – I was blown away too. I even called my husband to tell him how proud I was of myself. He agreed – it was truly a day of miracles.
So what exactly makes this miracle dress one of the best purchases ever? First off, it’s extremely comfy and very well made; an essential for all pieces that make it into my closet. The lightweight swiss dot lacey layers adds absolute stunning detailing that makes this dress one-of-a-kind and perfect for all occasions. Style this baby with my beloved sock booties for the perfect cool weather look. I don’t know about you, but nothing beats a look that’s comfortable AND cute!
What’s your favorite piece that you bought on a whim?!
Xx, Amanda
