Shabby Apple was so kind to let me give their beautiful Ingrid dress a spin. I'm getting tired of the whole layering/tights thing, so this dress had to stay inside, at least for now. I'm pretty sure it's going to get a fair amount of wear as soon as the weather warms up. At first, I questioned whether the ruffles around the collar were almost too voluminous, but, let's be honest, I'm not exactly drama-averse. B. wanted me to tell you that the belt was his idea, which is partially true. I put it on and he said it liked it. Baby steps.

Stunningly gorgeous belted or no, love the ruffles which give your face a pretty frame.

This is such a gorgeous look! The dress is wonderful and there is not too much drama in the ruffles. A bit of summer sun and that top of the dress will pop! :D
Great pairing with the shoes too! :)
B takes super photos!

Trés chic!
the frills on the blouse are so divine and i love how the striped band cinched your waist perfectly. very polished look :)

The ruffles are not at all overwhelming, but still dramatic. That is a gorgeous dress, and the belt really kicks it up a notch, so give B two thumbs way up and a pat on the back.

The ruffles gave the dress the oomph factor. Perfect! I love that you added the belt. Have a great weekend E. xoxo
