What I Wore: It's a (Faux) Wrap!

I hope you said the title of this post like Admiral Ackbar.  :-)

Sean and I finally had a chance to go out on a date this month.  It has been long overdue.  We also had a Groupon to spend at our local movie theater.  Before we went to see Looper, we ate some yummy seafood.  It was so nice to just relax and have a fun evening that did not involve checking things off of our endless To Do List.


Our evening did not require me to be more dressed up than usual, but I really wanted to put in the effort to look purty and get dolled up.  Enter the Harlow Faux Wrap Dress by Kiyonna.  I've had my eye on this dress since I first came across Kiyonna's website last year.  The cut of the skirt and closer fit are a little outside of my comfort zone, but I really wanted to try it out.


I felt a little self-conscious when I first tried it on.  However, I quickly warmed up to the silhouette and felt sassy in no time!  Three-quarter sleeves are my favorite length.  With this dress being a faux wrap, I didn't have to worry about any wardrobe malfunctions.  Having never owned a wrap dress before, it has always been a worry of mine.  This was a great way for me to stick my toe in the water, I suppose.


The sash is sewn to the dress on the side, so all you have to do is tie it.  It isn't a fussy dress you have to constantly fidget with.  I stuck with basic black accessories to keep things simple.  I'm so happy with this dress and the way I felt in it!
