I really enjoy wearing dresses in the Spring and Summer. This is my birthday month and I had to share with my lovely readers one of my recent finds. I love finding good deals and this one was a great deal.
My hubby and I went to Macy’s on my birthday, May 11. I happen to be going through the Jones New York clearance rack. To my surprise, I saw this beautiful vibrant dress. The dress retailed for $129. It marked 65% Off, with a sale price for about $45 and change. With a gift card the final price was $23 and change. Jumping up and down. Hurrah! I looked at another rack and it had the same dress but in a polka-dot print with a retail price of $129. Amazingly, that dress was not on sale. Have to catch those deals when you can.
The pattern sings songs of spring and summer. I love how the fit is so slimming. The dress can also be very versatile by adding a simple cardigan and animal print flats or heels. It is perfect for those not-so-warm spring days, when you need the cardigan in the morning when it is a bit cool. The cardigan is also a great layering piece for those warmer days when you are inside and the air condition is turned down low. I love it cool in the office so a cardigan is a must. If I need to take the cardigan off, I still have enough coverage that I don’t feel uncomfortable or showing too much skin at work.
This blue cardigan works perfect with the shades of orange in the dress. The contrast of colors really makes the outfit pop.
This dress is great for spring and summer; but it will work great for fall and winter as well. I can easily see this dress with a blazer or sweater with tights and boots.
Praise the Lord! This was such an awesome birthday deal. Celebrating my birthday the whole month.
Stay tuned for Dress Series II
