It’s a pretty well-known fact that I live in dresses throughout the summer – whether they are short or maxi length, I love the fact that I can throw on a dress and a few accessories in the morning and be finished with getting dressed. However, one style and color of dress that was lacking in my closet with a simple, comfortable black dress.
We all love and swear by the little black dress for dressier occasions, so I was determined to find a summer-friendly version. This one immediately caught my eye during a recent shopping trip with it’s crochet detail and the fact that I easily can change up shoes and accessories to take it from day to night.

Thank you! I guess I need to attempt pinning my hair more often. 🙂 Yes, dresses are such a saving grace in the summer. It's just so much easier to get dressed!
Thank you so much!
Awe, thanks girlfriend! I'm so mad that I couldn't find a link to the earrings online because they are so pretty in person.
Thank you! They were totally a last-minute impulse buy at Target – that place always seems to do that to me. 🙂
Thanks, mom!
Thanks so much!
Thank you!!
Thanks, girl!
I agree with you! I'm all about cost per wear and versatility these days, so I know I'll get a lot of use out of this dress.
You're so sweet, thanks!
Thanks, girl! And, Old Navy for the win – they've been killing it lately.
Thanks, girl! Glad I'm not the only one who thinks that way. 🙂
You're so sweet, thank you! I rarely do anything with pins in my hair because it took me about 40 tries to get it to stay like that. 🙂
Thanks, friend!
Thank you! That's why I liked it, too. 🙂
Thanks, girl!
Thanks, lady! I'm really not a shoe person, so the fact that I saw those and knew I had to have them, I knew I couldn't pass them up!
