Gals, I saw this dress adorned with great big colorful jewels, gracious did it spark joy! I didn't even try it on. I grabbed the hanger and made my way to check out. I believe that clothing should have this effect on us. We should love what it looks like whether it's the color, print, style or fabric.
Fun Fact: I love gaudy jewelry. I have quite the collection of costume pieces, particularly cocktail rings.
This dress in a satin like material, is light weight (great movement when you walk!) in a classic shirt dress design with a flowy, unfitted, silhouette. This gives it versatility in fit for all body shapes (even a little baby bump!).
For me, I prefer a more fitted look and defined waist so I add shape with belts and layers.
Here are ways to style this bejeweled maxi shirt dress ...
I like this layer as it gives shape and warmth but lets as much of the dress shine as possible.
I chose a metallic for added shine.
It also makes it easier to move and layer with a jacket/coat.
A full sweater will keep you warm and creates a soft casual look for day time.
Make sure your sweater is shorter in length and hits right at the natural waist
to keep the proportion long on the bottom.
Style Tip: you can pin the hem of the sweater folded under.
I love adding fur in the winter. It's luxurious and warm.
This adds shape & texture while keeping your arms free.
Any lady wearing jewels will be wearing a jacket like this one. This is great for dressy occasions.
Consider a blazer as well for a similar style.
Style Tip: A velvet blazer would be stunning this time of year - cuff the sleeves!
You can pair this with absolutely any color! Truly the sky is the limit, pastels, jewel tones, neutrals ...
As for shoes, heels or boots are great.
I may not own any royal jewels but I sure can dress like it!
Dress Beautifully Bejeweled
