Dramatic Florals

It may say fall on the calendar, but one of the many reasons I moved to Florida was to enjoy warmer temps year round and kiss old man winter goodbye. With that means our fall weather doesn't arrive until it's technically winter on the calendar, so I stay true to myself and continue to wear pieces that won't make me sweat just looking at them. When fall arrives on the calendar, I begin to mix in darker pieces and chunkier accessories when appropriate while staying cool in the heat. Some of my favorites are a maxi striped dress and darker florals, and I've been like a kid in a candy store browsing all the fun and flirty options at Zaful. I wore this showstopping maxi to an event over the weekend and not only was it beautiful and comfortable, but I loved letting people know who told me they loved my dress that it was less than $30!

Dress - Zaful | Jelly Sandals - Michael Kors | Sunnies {similar} - Tory Burch | Watch - Kate Spade | Double Ring - Kendra Scott | Clutch {5 colors} - Rebecca Minkoff | Lipstick in Bombshell - MAC


I fell in love with this dress because of the dramatic open back, the slit in the front making it flowy, and the darker floral print which would carry me into fall.

  18. I love this dress so incredibly much! I totally agree with you about fall in the south, it's not worth it to be sweating bullets just so you can wear sweaters and boots, instead wear pieces that work well for fall and will keep you cool too!
