Goodnight Macaroon ‘Cindy’ Lace Purple Dress / Sam Edelman ‘Yardley’ pump
Lace and cutouts, is there any combination as sweet?!? Lace is the epitome of soft and feminine and there is nothing quite like it! A few months back, I stumbled upon this amazing lace dress by designer, Self Portait! Much to my dismay, I realized it was almost $500 and was definitely a dress that would have to remain in my dreams, until NOW!! The dress in the picture above is by one of my favorite online boutiques Goodnight Macaroon! One day, while browsing their new arrivals I came upon THAT SAME DRESS, only it was $95!! I did not even think twice and ordered the ‘Cindy’ dress you see here! As with anything that is significantly more affordable, I thought the quality may be lacking a little, but I can tell you that this dress and the attention to detail are superb! The cutouts are beautiful and the back has a gold exposed zipper which I feel adds a touch of class to the already elegant design! This dress does come in pink and purple! There is also a VERY similar white lace ‘Annabelle’ crochet dress I have linked here, that is also GORGEOUS! I am going to show the white one to my sister for her upcoming wedding parties, it’s so perfect and a great price!
I paired this look with my Sam Edelman ‘Yardley’ pump in caramel that I thought added the perfect touch without fighting with the dress as beautiful as it is! I have mentioned this brand in the past, but wanted to mention them again as they are new and GROWING FAST; Hammitt LA! Hammitt makes beautiful leather goods and their attention to quality and detail are unmatched! I got this ‘Nash Clutch’ a few months back and I have taken it with me everywhere! I love the convenience of the size and the arm strap! A great clutch is an investment and with quality like this one, you will be carrying this bag for YEARS!!
This look has been one of my favorite recently and I am super excited about finally getting to share it with you all! I also wanted to prep you all for THE BIGGEST SALE OF THE YEAR (ok, maybe not quite) but THE NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE STARTS THIS THURSDAY FOR CARD HOLDERS!!!! This week is CRAZY for me as I am heading to Nashville for my sister’s bachelorette, so stay tuned to see my picks and I am hoping to get a “Shop” tab up as soon as I can with my Nordstrom picks! If you don’t know what this SALE is, its is a MAJOR SALE on upcoming FALL NEW ARRIVALS and Nordstrom discounts the new items to sometimes HALF-OFF for a short time and then the prices go back up! It is the PERFECT time to get some early July Christmas gifts out of the way as well as stock you closet for FALL! It is a great time to shop Back to School/College! So stay tuned and DON’T MISS OUT on this amazing SALE! If you do not have a Nordstrom card, now is the time to get one, it is only EARLY ACCESS this Thursday, so you must be a card holder to shop before the general public!
Happy Tuesday, my loves!
