Feeling very much like Molly Ringwald in "Pretty in Pink" in this floral organza mini puff dress with sweet cap sleeves & white lace trim from online emporium Shein which is, admittedly, a clear rip-off of an Insta-famous, very expensive (particularly with the exchange rate & postage from the USA) style but in all honesty, I own both the expensive & non-expensive versions & can't see a great deal of difference in quality or craftsmanship except perhaps a slightly more elevated finish on the branded option. As a fashion blogger & stylist I do try & purchase/own/wear the genuine article wherever & whenever possible but sometimes it's just not feasible from a monetary standpoint, particularly if the item is what could be considered a "trend" so I take care of these fast fashion purchases (hand washing, steaming) to make them last for as long as possible in my wardrobe.
But I digress. I've styled this gorgeous little number with a pair of white patent leather slingback heels with black matte pointy-toes & a pink & black striped strap from Wittner for a modicum of height, a black vinyl shoulder bag from Sussan to carry all the essentials including the omnipresent facemask & hand sanitizer & a funky, handmade resin cameo bracelet from Greece (pictured in detail above) that a dear friend gave me for my birthday a few years ago, apparently found at a little online boutique on Etsy. It truly is the perfect finishing touch to the entire whimsical ensemble!
