Damsel In The Dress {Giraffe Style}.

This is my new favorite dress that I own. It is incredibly comfortable and doesn't wrinkle very much. Plus, it's covered in giraffes. So awesome. I really love this outfit because I feel good in it. The fabric is slinky and not clingy so I don't get too warm like I tend to do in other dresses. I like the length, it's short but not too short. I've never really been one for showing off my legs and this is about as short as I like to go. It's not that I dislike my legs or anything, I just hate the way shorts feel all bunched up between my thighs so the only time I show my legs is when I wear a dress.

Dress: Hot Topic (who knew they carried something that doesn't look like a lollipop threw up on it?)

Cardigan: H&M

Shoes: Ross

Earrings: Made by a dear friend

It also has pockets! Woo hoo! In my opinion, every dress should have pockets. I think it'd be cute with a thin belt but I don't have any. Maybe I'll make a crocheted belt...with tassel ties?

I love the back cutout. It's so fun and even when I'm wearing a cardi and nobody can see it, I still know it's there. It's like my sweet little secret.

Here is a closeup of the giraffes. I love the wooden look of the buttons too. They're not actually wooden though. I'm so happy to finally have a yellow cardigan. I purchased a mustard colored cardi a few years ago on the morning of my sister's wedding. It was getting kind of windy out so I told her she could wear my new cardi with her wedding dress as her wedding colors were yellow and grey. She never gave it back citing some rule about, "If you wear it on your wedding day, it is yours to keep forever." I never even got to wear the darn thing, not even once. This one is more canary yellow than mustard but I still like it.
