Drop Everything





I was thrilled, to say the least, when drop-waist dresses became popular again.  I love the slight vintage feel this shape has & I’m a big fan of the way they can elongate the torso, making even the most vertically-challenged (or short-waisted) appear tall & lean.  This houndstooth style pretty much fulfills all my requirements – flattering, comfortable, on-trend…plus the fabric is a slightly thicker knit, so it’s an ideal choice for those sunny but crisp fall days.  {Great news: London Times is offering 20% off their entire site exclusively for PPF readers.  Just use code PPF20 at checkout – good through November 11th!}

What I’m wearing:

c/o London Times dress (here), Mossimo pumps (here), Necklaces: Forever 21 (similar) & Zara (here), ASOS clutch (on sale here + extra 10% off with code MEGA10), Lips: L’Oreal Infallible Red Fatale, Nails: Sally Hansen Nail Strips Tweed Le-Dee

    Houndstooth is one of my favorites, and this dress is simply wonderful! I think the way you combined the necklaces was so creative, and the clutch is so awesome!

    That dress is gorgeous on you! I've ALWAYS been a fan of drop waist dresses and can't for the life me understand how they are just now becoming so popular! Love the print and everything about it. Happy Friday! xo

    Hi Star,

    My hair is naturally curly, so I just let it dry this way and then scrunched it a little. You can get the same effect with a 1" barrel curling iron & wrapping sections around (without using the clamp)! 🙂

    xo,

    Beautiful dress. Love this trend but I wonder if it flatters a curvy body because some clothes don´t really look good on everyone, I really like the style but I don't think it would work on me.
