So...I don't wear this silhouette of dress. I don't really care for flower prints unless it's roses and these colors aren't normally me either. But i don't know. This dress really appealed to me? Maybe it's because the print is kind of cheeky? I tried to tone down the va-va-voom with playful socks and sandals. And i like that since it's clingy it isn't too short or low cut.
So yeah. Not sure what else to say. >.> I wore this!

I love that the color of your socks immediately draws the eye. It does an interesting visual trick, keeping the eye from lingering on the shape of the dress, de-bombshelling it in a really different way. Really clever and wonderful! The dress looks beautiful! The outfit is spectacular!

KILLER. So pinned.
One of my Nicole faves to date. I guess because it's much simpler and less accessorized than your usual style. Don't get me wrong! You are Queen Maximal and pull that vibe off with immense panache! Personally, you know I bat for Team Minimal - so I love this outfit a little extra :)
Perhaps your new pink neon jacket will work over it too?

Angie - i thought that also! UPS promises the postal person will bring it to my doorstep tomorrow. So i will try them together then for sure. Thanks for pinning me. :D
Sarah - thank you <3

I like it! I am always drawn to socks and sandals even though I wouldn't be able to pull it off myself.

perfect! whimsical and cute! I am thinking the other way round... the shape of the dress makes the overall outfit from being overly cute. Simply love it!

Looks super. Perfect pattern placement.
I love the simple lines of this dress on you. The socks and sandals totally work for your style, and I love the unexpected neon bib necklace, too!

Nicole, this is both feminine and playful and highlights your own unique style. I love the heeled sandals with socks and your dress is a perfect figure-flattering fit. Happy Summer, Nicole.

That dress looks awesome on you! You should wear that silhouette.

I really like this! And the dress is a great silhouette on you. And good for you for being cool enough to pull off socks and sandals in a fashion-forward way :)
Tanya replied 12 years ago
Love! Saw the dress at the store and did not think much of it, but you make it look amazing.

I am endlessly impressed with your fashion and styling skills. You are so creative. If there were a Fashion Blogger reality show, I'd vote you on, week after week.

Irene replied 12 years ago
I got this dress too! Though I won't be half as creative as you are with it.

Lovely, fab, fun, cheeky, breezy. mod...you can style it a billion different ways (I see you wearing it with knee high doc martens, for example, but really, you could pull off anything).
You have the most lovely body type for so many types of clothes, your pic quality and poses are just fantastic and of course your style is always amazing.
Hey there you sexy beast. I'm Nicole Brown and i enjoy dressing myself on a daily basis. My style is all about having fun with fashion while embracing a little bit of crazy every now and then. Wink face!
