What I Wore | Bridal Shower Edition

Hello ladies! Sorry I didn't really post last week, but life has been so crazy busy that I was hardly ever home long enough for taking outfit pictures or to even write a simple post, also this week isn't looking any better as we will all be getting ready for Hanne-col's graduation this coming Saturday at our Church. Yep, soon three out of five of us kids will be graduated from high-school, which is kinda crazy to think about.
What I'm Wearing
Lace Dress -- Banana Republic [Mad Men Collection] via Simply Chic [$20]
White Cami -- Forever 21 [$1.80]
White Drop Earrings -- Forever 21 [$1.80]
Ring -- Forever 21 [$3.80]
Monogram Necklace --c/o ONecklace 
Sandals -- Target [$16]
Lipstick -- L'Oreal Paris Colour Caresse Wet Shine Stain in Endless Red [$7.99]
Nail Polish -- Essie in Mint Candy Apple & Fashion Playground

This past Saturday I attended a friends bridal shower, and for the occasion I wore this beautiful white lace dress that I picked up at our favorite consignment/thrift store: Simply Chic, since I can't wear it to the wedding in a few weeks. I kept the styling very simple with: simple jewelry & shoes, to help the white lace dress really stand out & shine on its own. Of course, you could also style this dress with some fun & bright colours too. 

Ah, yes...I did get a haircut this past week. I wanted shorter hair for the summertime, as it is so much easier to take of, plus is much cooler in this warmer weather [since my car doesn't have air-condiationing]. Right now I'm learning how to style this new length, and what products work best for my current hair needs [which is mostly lift at the roots]. Having shorter hair also means that I will be able to do more vintage hairdos, which is awesome, perhaps I'll even do a few tutorials for y'all. ;-)  

How would YOU style this lace dress?

  3. I love that dress on you :) It's such a statement in itself that I think I would only add some jewelry, like you did, or perhaps a scarf. And your haircut is cute!

  7. Your new haircut is lovely! Love this simple but classy outfit.

    I've been trying to find those sandals on Target.com ever since you posted this yesterday. Do you have a name for the style (or better yet, a link?). I would appreciate that so much-- they're perfect, and I want a pair for myself! :)

  15. Beautiful dress! :) I like the way you styled it. I might do some colorful wedges and perhaps a belt with it.

  16. You look stunning in white, Ashley!
    I'd probably wear it the same, maybe a belt for definition in my waist. Although I'm much bigger than you and it would probably look horrid on me ;)
    Looking forward to your tutorials-although I personally would love tutorials or ideas on styling long hair in retro styles.
