Dress: Minju Kim x H&M, Boots: Asos, Accessories: Karen Walker Number One sunglasses, J.Crew necklace, La Mer x Target leopard wrap watch, Nike FuelBand, vintage and ily couture bracelets, Loeffler Randall Rider bag
When I heard about H&M's Design Award collection by Minju Kim, I was stoked. While I'm not normally the one to go for exaggerated silhouettes in my wardrobe, I do love seeing avant-garde designs (for the most part). So, the moment I saw this dress in the collection, I was in love. The pleats, the shape and the fit seemed way too good to ignore. I was fortunate enough to nab this dress in my size and was thankful it fit well!
I wore this to an event held by Birchbox a week ago where I was also fortunate to meet co-founder, Katia Beauchamp. She is one of the most inspiring women I have ever spoken with. I don't say that just to say it but, her story of success was incredible to hear in person. Even if I do nothing else in my blogging career, I will be forever grateful to have met some incredible people (not just her but other bloggers too!).
P.S. I ended up curling my hair at the last minute...so you'll notice straight hair goes to curly hair in the photos!
Thanks, Sarah for taking the photo! =)
This is one cute dress!

Beautiful! I love the pink pleats. I love seeing high fashion looks too, even if I wouldn't really wear them.

This dress is too cute! I love the colors and the silhouette!
ReplyDeleteWow, this dress is so fun and fabulous! That cut is amazing. Love the pop of neon pink too. Not something i'd gravitate toward, but I love it on.
ReplyDeleteWow! What an amazing dress! Absolutely love it!
ReplyDeleteI think you can totally pull off that shape so well. On me, I would gain about 30 pounds. LOL. The pink pleats are a fun contrast too! <3

Nancy how gorgeous are you! I love this dress- this dress has magic- love the trapeze shape and the pink peeking from within the folds. You rock it so well- making sweet edgy, and add a splash of cool.

Neon pink plus pale aqua looks so fantastic sharp, fun and fresh together. It's a great modern take on a beloved 1950s colour combo, and one that I must say, you look flat out amazing in, dear gal!
