I usually stick to dresses that have only one of three characteristics - short, form-fitting, or a low neckline. This dress breaks that rule, in that it's both short and form-fitting. (The fabric is not a stretchy Spandex like it looks in pictures at least - it's a structured cotton with a lot of excess fabric when I move around. It may show my form, but it's definitely not "tight.") What it came down to though is my weakness for this print. Porcelain prints are so nostalgic for me, I couldn't resist this dress for only $20 when I bought it a couple years ago. Today's inspiration photo reminded me to pull it out of my closet for date night with JJ and gave me the idea to style it with neon accessories. I love this print so much I'm thinking about investing in dress #1 below so I can wear it to work events, weddings, and the like!
