Blue Tips

July 27, 2015 by jessica 11 Comments

Dee-Elle-Smocked-Swing-Dress-2

Over the weekend, we headed south to Louisville. We had visited the city twice before and checked off the major sights, so a quick weekend trip was just enough time to visit our favorite haunts, explore local boutiques (I bought an opalescent and brass vase from Scout), try out new bars (Meta had the best craft cocktails), and new-to-us restaurants. It was also my first full weekend without the boot since May! I felt pretty sassy in my Jack Purcell sneakers after a 21c hotel employee told me I had “nice blue tips.”

This dress was a $29 sale find at Nordstrom and it was perfect for the steamy weather in Kentucky. It’s lightweight, fairly breathable, and didn’t wrinkle in my travel bag. The lining is a bit smaller than the overlay, so you’re not at risk of revealing too much in a light breeze. I heeded the advice to size up.
