This is one of my favorite dresses By Madison Leigh. I purchased it for a great price from Macy’s a few years back. The fabric is comfortable and I can wear this dress all year long. Florals are bursting with popularity this year, so if you have something with flowers on it, wear it. If you do not have anything with a floral pattern or don’t care for floral wear, you can wear a flower in your hair. Silk flowers can be purchase at a store like Michael’s. Cut off the stem of the flower and pin it in your hair. I have made flowers for my hair many times.
This dress is a chameleon with color because there are shades of yellow, gold, black, green and gray. I am wearing a black cardigan. However, I can wear a multitude of colors with this dress. I wore black because I often will put on a green shirt jacket, so I am changing it up a bit. Isaac Mizrahi was the first designer that I heard say that you can coordinate florals with other floral pieces. Don’t be afraid to mix patterns, be daring.
When it’s hot, there is nothing like putting on a dress. It is like having a built in air conditioner because I like natural fibers and breath-ability. Having those elements in a dress is perfect. This dress has a built in bra and doesn’t need a shaper underneath. All of these features make it such a great find and a go-to favorte.
I wore this dress with my Stone Mountain clogs because the metallic color in the shoe is so neutral and not competing with the colors in the dress.
What floral apparel do you have in your closet?

Pretty look! I do like the silk flowers at Michaels (and how your dog is photo bombing your picture, lol). I have a floral dress that I’d like to wear on the blog soon.

Thank you. My doggie always gets in the picture some how. Can’t wait to see your floral dress on your blog.
Fantastic print. Curious to see the top! Dog coordinating nicely too!
I will do a post of what the top of the dress looks like. Doggie has to always get photo props too.
My dear girl, you look stunning! Love the print and the color is perfect on you! I absolutely drooling at the sight of that cuff, gorgeous!

Thank you Mrs. C! The cuff is a birthday present.
I adore this print, and the way you’ve styled it, JT! (I have those great sandals too – so comfortable!) Thanks for sharing with Visible Monday.
Thank you Patti! Those sandals are very comfortable and give me a little height.
Very pretty dress and what a sweet photo bomber!
Thank you Sandy. Yes, Vinny is a sweet photo companion.
Great little dress, and so nice with the bracelet. You’ll wear it deep into summer without the cardi. It’s especially nice that it all matches your adorable dog bomb so well!
Thank you Jan. Surprisingly even though it’s June it’s been cool and I agree that the cardi will not be needed when it gets warmer. I will tell Vinny that you think he’s adorable. He is such a sweet fellow.
This print caught my eye over at Visible Monday! You look fabulous. I especially like the way you chose to wear the necklace, adding a little zing of additional color.
Thank you so much. I enjoy adding color to pop an outfit.
