Although I'm usually overdressed for most events in my life -- work, going to the mall, hanging out with my friends -- I don't normally have the opportunity to really dress up. Yesterday, my brother's friend got married, and it was perfect excuse to wear this dress that I bought at King of Prussia mall, which I mentioned in this post.
I love this dress! I love its classic shift shape, the detailing on the trim, and the subtle animal print. To play up the gold thread sewn through the dress, I wore my gold headband and oversized pearls.
The tiny pearl earrings went well with the classic style of the dress and the purse was a perfect metallic match and a great pop of color and print.
And look at the shoes! A real pair of heels! One could even call them pumps. I love them and can't wait to wear again -- I think they'll work as a great neutral for other formal occasions.

I don't normally spend so much on a dress, and very rarely shop in high end stores, but I think this dress -- with its classic shape and just enough details to make it special -- was well worth it. xoxo Anna Rae
