I've found my perfect summer dress!
I would love to say that I found this dress after scouring countless
stores in relentless pursuit of the perfect summer dress. In all honesty,
however, finding this dress was much more of a right place, right time, right
price, right dress situation.
This gorgeous dress is by Diane von Furstenberg. However, I did not
find it in a fancy-shmancy department store (of course not!). No, I was at
Marshall's, of all places, buying socks with my brother (oh, the
glamour!).
I had been eyeing the dress since we walked in the store. The dress
was on display by itself in the shoe section (a very odd place for it to be in
Marshall's) and every time I walked by I could not help but stare at it. When
my brother and I were finally in line to pay for his socks I started to think
that I could not leave without at least trying it on. I walked over to the
dress snatched it right off its display hanger and walked straight to the
fitting rooms to try it on (ha ha, I was a total woman on a mission!).
I tried it on and, to my absolute joy and excitement, it fit
perfectly.
What happened next was fairly typical. I bought the dress (of course).
Brought it home, tried it on and did some obligatory twirls.
I'm sure I'll be wearing this dress all summer long!
This is my perfect summer dress, what's yours?
