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!
