Fashion Friday… Easy Easter Brunch Attire
Can you believe this weekend is Easter??? Holy cow this year is already getting away from me already. For me Easter kicks off the spring fashions. We move from darker colors and winter fabrics to items that are light in color and fabric. We move away from boots to open toes wedges and sandals. Florals take center stage, both in the landscape with flowers awakening from their winter slumbers and on our clothes. To me this outfit just screams, “Hello Spring!!!”.
- Dress– I am totally digging this tea length floral dress. It has all the wonderful spring colors; pink, green, yellow. The belt to tie it on the waist will help hid a few of those stubborn winter pounds that don’t quite get the hint that it is time to go. Plus the A-Frame will also show off the hourglass figure without drawing any attention to any problem areas. I like that the print it not the entire dress. For those of us who carry weight on our lower halves but hardly any up top, the round abrupt end to the pattern just above the girls, will help make them look larger too. Really, unless you hate flowers, there is nothing not to like about this dress.
- Shoes– Hello pretty piggies!! There is nothing more spring then open toed cork wedges. Love how strappy they are!!
- Hair– For this particular dress, a soft up-do would be best. I love this twist on the sock bun, with the braid around the bottom. It looks kinda like a waterfall braid. What do you think? I would have jazzed it up a bit with bobby pins though.
- Accessories– Diamonds are a girls best friend. I love diamonds, so personally I think diamond stud earrings go with everything. They are just pretty and sparkly. A shiny silver bracelet is the cherry on this outfit.
Let me know what you think of this outfit. Is it something that you could see yourself wearing it? If you had to change one thing about it, what would your change be? I love reading your comments, so let me know your thoughts.

Classic, feminine and sweet you pulled it all together gorgeously Kat! That little clutch is a nice simple touch too, for me personally it’s nude heels with most of my spring dresses. I very much enjoy that A frame for all the reasons you mentioned! My “go to” spring dress cuts are sheath as well as fit and flare. Hope your day is beautiful one!

Thank you so much. I agree with you on the nude heels, they always make your legs look longer too. A nice trick for those of us who are vertically challenged lol. Hope that you have a great weekend 🙂

I found your blog from A Bowl Full of Lemons Linky Party.
So glad to be here. As far as for the above attire. I love the dress but it’s not something I would be able to wear as it would take a strapless bra and I can’t do those. I am envious of those that can. I do LOVE the shoes and diamonds are always a big fat YES!
Kat Ryan
LOL yea I can’t do the strapless either, they always slide off. But I got nothing there, so I just go without… sshhh don’t tell hehe. Diamonds are a girls best friend after all. Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope to “see” ya again 🙂
