I was lucky enough to snag one of Ilana's Eibel dresses before they sold out. I can't wait to be back in a school, man, so I can wear the dress (and the outfit I created around it) around all those hot male teachers. Totally adorable and boy-magnetic.
I love the dress' details, especially the buttons. And the ikat print, obviously.

Yesterday I dragged Jennifer and her beau into her neighborhood Am Appy so I could buy some cheap knee socks to complete the ensemble. It was up for debate whether or not the chick at the register was wearing a bra under her lace dress; we concluded that she was not. I think that choice was her means of passively flirting with her coworker, Andrew (who was pretty hot, hence why I remembered his name), or maybe that's really how all Am Appy employees roll.
I will spare you the sight of my bare fat thighs and me wearing the dress with socks, as that region of my body does not photograph well. I should really stick to just stockings. But just know that the knee socks and the Eibel dress go really well with Hasbeens. And a swell grey cardigan.
Oh, and Ilana's having a sale on what's left in her shop through tonight! Check out her blog for the deets. I'm soooo tempted by the Two-Tone Emily dress, ugh, it kills me...
I love this dress, and the way you've styled it!
ReplyDeletecute! i love the whole ensemble, esp. the cardi. the eyes of that little cdg heart peer into my soul.
ReplyDeletehahah I love that little play bugger...I wish I had more of him in my wardrobe
ReplyDeleteway cute. i bought this same dress! i think i might wear mine with tights AND knee highs...havent tried it yet though.
ReplyDeleteeven though i would love to, i don't think i can pull off JUST knee highs. my cabbage patch legs won't let me :)
Looks great! I'm glad the socks worked out! And, I loooove that cardigan and the hasbeens.
ReplyDeleteyou know, that's a really good idea, Kate! I might have to try that, with these socks and some black opaque tights...that might just work! sorry if I copy your idea : )
ReplyDeleteyeah, dude! and thanks for dealing w/the anguish of going in that store w/me...I hope your nailpolish is looking good...
I'm flattered. If you try it, show me!
ReplyDeleteI will totally do that! unless I continue to photograph fat haaaah
ReplyDeletesuch a cute dress! i think dudes dig the ikat. even though they probs dont even know what ikat actually is.
ReplyDeletehahah...that made me laugh
ReplyDeleteI love the outfit, especially the ikat. Whocareswhatyourthighslooklike? I want to see the whole outfit...like really.
ReplyDeletelol I'll make sure to do that and post it on my Flickr...those socks are not very forgiving, though! too tight...
ReplyDeleteWAY adorb. I love that ikat up close. It's so delicate and muted and nice. How's the shape of the dress? Sort of loose and shirt-dressy?
