Modern Sheath


Though I am a stay-at-home mom and don’t normally have a reason to get as dressed up as I used to when I was working, I believe every woman should have at least one or two classic sheath dresses in her closet.  They are so versatile (date nights, church, Christmas parties, weddings, work), will never go out of style and you can change up the accessories to create different looks.  I love the modern twist of this London Times version – the combination of the “baby” peplum and graphic colorblocking is ultra-flattering…and because the fabric is scuba, it’s incredibly comfortable too.  


What I’m wearing:
c/o London Times dress (here – also love this striped dress & this mod shift), c/o Fabulous on a Dime necklace (similar), Nina booties (similar), Target sunnies (similar), Merona clutch (here), Lips: CoverGirl Blast Flipstick Smooch
