When I got the latest J. Crew catalog a few months ago, I spied this cobalt blue stunner. The bows, the color and the shape of the dress were all 10/10 for me! I can't bring myself to pay full price for anything, really, so I knew it would be a waiting game. Fast forward a couple months, and the fam and I were shopping in Florida. We stopped at J. Crew, and this dress was 30% off! Horray! Of course, there were none in my size. I was bummed, but the salesperson encouraged me to try on the 4. Well, I am really glad I did! This dress runs a little big, as I am not typically a 4 (especially in a sheath dress), so keep that in mind! It is on sale currently for 40% off $109! About $60 ish dollars for a classic dress. It also comes in black!
Note: not my drums, HAHA!
Those bows!
Try these other cobalt blue dresses from J.Crew if you're not sure about the bows: here, here and here.
Isn't this color just so vibrant?
I paired this dress with my favorite blue crystal-cluster earrings, also from J. Crew, compliments of my friend, Jackie!
Watch: Similar Michael Kors.
Roman numerals bracelet: A special gift from my Aunt Sue but similar here.
Saint Mary's bangle (SMC monogram): from Junior Mom's Weekend '08!
I wore them for my friend Fran's wedding, and they were extremely comfortable!
Wait: the best part-- they are currently under $40 on 6pm.com! I paid full price for these beauties a couple years ago because I was desperate for a black pump and fast. However, they're WORTH EVERY CENT!
Now the best part: Finn Patrick!
I am so in love. My nephew is just perfect.
Bar coordinates necklace: Lat and Lo. I just purchased this necklace with our address on it! The inscription on the back says, "our first home"! What an amazing gift to give someone (or yourself!). Check out http://www.latandlo.com/ for more fabulous personalized pieces!
