Hippie Chic(k)

Dress: BCBG (old). Shoes: Nine West. Watch: Michael Kors. Ring: Kate Spade. Sunglasses: Chanel.

 

This is pretty much as close to Bohemian dressing as I could get.  It’s funny how I instantly become more relaxed as soon as I put on this dress.  It has an easy breezy, go with the flow vibe, perfect for cooler nights in late summer and for this Labour Day weekend.  The detail is hard to see in these photos, but there is a pretty iridescent beading along all of the embroidery on this dress.   All I need now is flowers in my hair.

    Haha I’m like you! The most hippie style thing I own is a long boho skirt lol but you look very nice in this dress though :)

    It’s a very pretty print and looks super comfortable yet chic at the same time :-)

    We all need something hippie inspired in our closets, but I am sure this is one of the more chic and tasteful options I have seen. The dress is a beautiful color and that white embroidery is super pretty! It’d be super cute with a pair of sandals for the weekend too!

    Jenny I must confess that I feel absolutely the same about “Dirty Dancing”!!! LOL
    BTW this look is simplier than the ones you use to share with us but you look stylish anyway!! However I would have tried with flat sandals for a more relaxed look…
