LAVENDER PRINCESS

Tuesday, April 17, 2012



Headband: Vintage
Dress: c/o Romwe
Rope cord: Random fabric store, $1
Shoes: Cynthia Vincent for Target

Hey guys! Today I'm wearing a lovely boho-chic/princess inspired dress from Romwe! I was mainly attracted to this dress because of the detailed embroidery work :) But upon further thought, the lavender shade is also right on trend with this season's pastel color scheme (the color looks light in this photo but it is a lot darker in real life). To me, this piece looked like the kind of thing you'd find at Free People but wouldn't be able to afford because of the two or three hundred dollar price tag. However, this dress was only $45!

I styled it with my mom's vintage chain headband to give off an overall medieval-inspired look! I also tied a rope tassel cord around the middle (this was actually purchased in LA at a random fabric store for only one dollar; I believe its real intended use was for curtains) to accentuate my waist. Lastly, I threw on these studded heels because the gold hardware matched with the headband, and I also wanted to add a rock and roll twist to contrast with the sweetness of the dress!

In the future, I can see myself wearing this dress to do a photoshoot at the beach or on a carousel. Or you could fit in right at Disneyland with all the other princesses! You could even style this down and make it more wearable for school by throwing on a chunky sweater on top so that only the skirt part is showing :) Overall, I look forward to wearing this dress more, especially because it photographs beautifully!

    1. Thanks Theresa! And nah xD The color editing just kind of made it look purple in the end but I was too lazy to go back and fix it again. Thank you :*
