A few weeks back when I was having a little staycation with Marriott Hotels, I couldn’t help but wander into the massive Forever 21 in the middle of Times Square. Five floors of diverse, inexpensive clothes are great for one thing and one thing only – impulsive buying.
I left with a few new items in hand, including this hot pink slip dress with black lace detailing.
A few days later I realized that I’m in fact not “forever 21,” and should probably find a way to make this slip dress a bit less slip-like if I actually wanted to wear it in public. Nothing a little blazer and tights can’t fix, right?
Oh, and did I mention that I got this dress for just about twenty bucks? That’s what I like to call #TrendyNotSpendy.
The whole look:
Slip Dress – Forever21
Blazer – Top Shop
Handbag – Dolce Vita Isabella Bucket
Watch – Nixon
Tights and boots – H&M
Cuff and rings – Forever 21
Necklace – Speakable
(Thanks to my friend/photographer Samy Ruby - if you’re in NYC and looking for a photographer, I couldn’t recommend her more! You can check out her work here.)

When you shop are you more impulsive, or on a mission to find certain pieces?
You NAILED the subtle sexy look. Wow. Seriously. Meow.
I was browsing the intimates section of Target the other day and found these solid long sleeved nightgowns…so I picked up a gray and black. They’re so comfy and, dressed it up with a scarf or some big jewelry, no one would guess I was wearing PJs. On that note, let’s keep this our little secret 😉
hehe oh I am so with you - I may or may not have worn a legit slip as a dress the other day 😛 with another slip underneath, of course!
Oh my gosh, you’re beautiful! Love that outfit, so cute.
ah, thanks girl! xo
Loved the whole look especially the blazer !
I love it! What a fun look - I’d love to recreate this for a girls’ night out!
you def should! perfect for that 🙂
