Happy Wednesday loves! I feel like it’s been a hundred years since I’ve shared an outfit post on the blog and trust me guys when I tell you it’s not because I haven’t wanted to. Quite literally, Virginia weather hardly ever cooperates from November until March, but alas pretty weather is here and fingers crossed it’s here to stay!

I’m excited to share with you today this gorgeous black shift dress that features bright florals perfect for spring and summer! When I first picked up this dress in the store, I almost thought the flowers were butterflies, and ya’ll already know my love for those! The material is so lightweight and I love the bell sleeve detail that adds some character to a fairly simple dress shape. I paired it with some black pump stilettos and to complete the look I added in a gorgeous statement necklace from Happiness Boutique.

I’m wearing the Gala Statement Necklace in Pastel Blue, and I feel like it literally brings the entire look together. I just love the pastel colors, the girly detailing, and although it is a “statement” necklace, I feel like it is very elegant and dainty looking with all of the pretty crystals and jewels.

Also can we talk about how gorgeous the floral print on this dress is?! The bright yellow and pink florals really contrast well against the black dress and I love that it is a great multi-occasion piece! Would be fun for date night yet it is still appropriate for the office and a work event.
