dress (wearing an XS) | booties | sunglasses

I was on the hunt for an effortless dress, so immediately went to the Free People section on my latest trip to Nordstrom. I needed something that can be thrown on with sandals, booties or whatever! I love how Brooke paired it with a pair of skinny jeans – perfect for when it starts to cool off. If you live too far from a Nordy’s to stop in, no worries (with free shipping + returns) – their online selection is amazing! We still order online (sometimes it’s just easier than hitting the dressing room with strollers!). 

When Meggan and I realized we both picked up this Free People dress from Nordstrom, we thought it would be fun to share two different looks with the same piece. I tried mine on in store with these flares (which I had to snag after seeing the price tag of $78 – I could NOT believe it), but really wanted to wear my new booties out for date night, so threw on my favorite pair of skinnies. I love pieces that can be worn several different ways, and this dress is the perfect example. I also considered snagging some knee-high socks, and throwing on my OTK boots – another great look!
