The perfect yellow dress

I ordered this Aje dress and Sam Edelman slingbacks on Shopbop back when they had one of their major sales. As most of you know, it’s my favorite silhouette and I was particularly taken by the amount of fabric and extra volume this dress had. It’s perfect for twirling, you know?

Anyway, I ordered a 9 in this slingbacks but they were too big, so I exchanged them for an 8.5. I’ve worn size 9 for most of my life — probably since middle school — but I’m actually closer to an 8.5 and just live in denial and then act surprised when shoes slip off my feet. So, if you’re between sizes, size down — because I probably could have even done an 8.

Once the shoes came in, I put them with the new dress and these old daisy tights from Modcloth. They don’t sell them anymore, but someone kindly pointed out that they’re still available on amazon, so get your own daisy tights here! My daisy hair bows are handmade and the easiest DIY, the beret is Brixton (I’ve had it forever), and the bag is vintage. The lip color is Bare Pro “Saffron” by Bare Minerals and is the perfect orange shade. I mistakenly referred to it as Geranium at one point, so I am really sorry if I confused anyone!
