I am finally joining Andi and Heidi this week for their link-up of Dresses Week. Anyone who has followed this blog for a while knows that Dresses are my Most Favorite thing in the world. I wish I'd have known about the link-up sooner cause I'd have prepared another post featuring a Dress. Anyway, better late than never. I wore these Short, 3/4-sleeve, T-Shirt Dresses a couple of weeks ago for late afternoon/early evening out and about with Vivian. By "out and about" I mean going to a cafe, going to the playground, window shopping and grocery shopping. Exciting stuff, I tell you. LOL These Dresses were worn two days in a row. They were warm enough for later in the day where it cools off a little.
First up I wore this Graphic Floral/Paisley LBD with hints of White from White House Black Market. Love the ruching along the waist. It makes it more slimming. I accessorized with a Long Tear-drop Silver Necklace also from WHBM and a Black Enamel Bangle. My Girly Gold Ballet Flats matched the Gold Leather Tote to perfection. What do you think of this Dress and how I styled it?

Next, I wore this favorite, Simple Striped piece by Express. I accessorized with light, simple, Small Chandelier Earrings and once again carried my Gorgeous Elliot Lucca Gold Bag. To bring out the Color-blocked Bright Blue from the Dress I added a Blue Python Bangle also by Express and my Royal Blue+Neon Jelly Thong Sandals which matched perfectly?

Many of them (like the ones I linked to) are on sale now, as well. =) Check them out!! (I am not being paid to advertise them - just sharing my honest opinion with you.)
P.S. T-Shirt Dresses are a Must-Have for Summer to me, so I am linking up with BRI for her Third Thursday Threads which this month is all about Summer Must Haves. And a little late in the week but better late than never, linking up with CLAIRE because her theme this week was Sandals.
Also linking up to Allison, Claire, Erin, Jen, Jo-Lynne, Lena, Renae and Tara.
There will be another Dress on the blog this weekend and a Fun New Series I am starting on Monday. Stay Tuned and Enjoy the Weekend, Ladies!!
