A-Dubs' recent post has inspired me to pull out my thrifted sundress, which I've maybe worn 3 times since I found it last summer. This dress has many positives. The outside is a lovely, floaty silk chiffon. There are mini round buttons on the empire bodice, giving this a vague drindl look. I don't mind a lack of a defined waist. It gives decent back coverage, which is key for me (I think the back is really intimate and personal, more so than upper legs). The hemline is a bit awkward, but I am taking a page out of A-Dub's book and rocking the wedge strappy sandals with the longer hemline.
The only issue is the polyester lining. As my mum-in-law has said, this defeats the purpose of the breezy silk summer dress. Do you think it's meant to be a fall dress, with a dark denim jacket, some tights? It's awfully flowery, so maybe some combat or motorcycle boots? Cowboy boots? What is up with sundresses with polyester linings, anyway? I am already sweating as I type this, but I am getting another wear out of it!
