I simple adore the English garden party vibes of this Barefoot Contessa dress!  What first caught my eye wasn’t even the 70’s inspired colours or floral pattern.  It was that even though it’s not a tight fit, it still has seams that cinch in at the waistline taking this from shift dress territory to more of an a-line.  Off body, the dress has an hourglass shape all on its own.  It had to be mine!  It’s certainly nice to dress up for once too.  I feel like I keep gravitating towards ripped jeans, sneakers, and a loose tee.  What is happening to me?  Am I on the way to being perpetually casual?  Maybe it’s just because we haven’t been hit with warm weather yet?  Is this a delayed quarter life personal style crisis?  Help!
