A Bit of an Edge

I have worn this dress quite a few times this summer, with a variety of shoes and not much else. I got the urge to slightly toughen it up a couple of days ago when the weather was a bit cooler, because the bottom part is a little poofier (is that even a word?) than I normally wear my dresses and makes me feel a bit more girlish. What better way than adding some lace ups, eh? I could have gone a little edgier, but that's what experimenting is for.

The best part of this dress? It twirls like a dream! It always makes me want to turn on some classical music and prance around like I know even the slightest bit of ballet hehe. Too bad you can't see it through the blur, curse my horrible lighting.

I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend! I am off to Atlantic City with mother dearest, this should be nothing short of interesting. Pictures will follow!
