Que Bella – Silk Crepe Maxidress x 2

You saw that last week I reviewed the Silk Crepe Maxidress in both Brilliant Blueberry and Black. I did purchase both of them as I loved the feel of them on, they looked good as a single dress or layered and they were on promo with another % off. I wore both this week, layered. They are touted as Beach Cover-ups which I will use them for this Summer but I also found some great slips that work well for both.

I Monday I wore the Maxidress in Brilliant Blueberry with my old GAP Denim jacket (JC, GAP, ON, Levi’s)    and the J Crew Tybee Metallic Sandals. The Grotto Pendant Necklace would look great with this dress. I felt comfortable and super chic all day.

On Thursday I decided to wear the Black Maxidress. This time I wore the Metallic V-Neck Sweater over the dress. I folded it under a few times and tied a knot in the back and had myself a cropped sweater with very little effort and no exposed skin! I added my lovely Dorado Necklace and the Canvas Espadrilles in Dark Ebony for a cool, casual vibe. I am a consistent size 7/37 but took a 38 in these. I find that flat espadrilles like these I have to size up one Euro size to accommodate the width of my foot. It’s a little tight in the 37.

To make sure I wasn’t exposed as these dresses can be sheer in specific lighting I found some Calvin Klein slips at Nordstrom. I bought both the Bare/Nude and the Black in Medium. The fit was great and the short length was perfect to prevent the dress from being see-through. 
Have a Great Weekend!

    Thanks for the tip on the slips! I've been looking for something like that. The sweater looks good over the dress!

    Ooh, I like how you made the silk maxi more casual by pairing it with the denim jacket. And great idea on layering over a maxi, I honestly never thought of that before!
