FLORAL DRESS FASHION LOOK
This floral dress is perfect for spring and summer! Floral patterns are in for spring/summer 2017, and the shimmery material makes this dress stand out even more. I show you two ways to wear this outfit by changing only one item.
I love this shimmery dress! So far, I’ve worn it to church on Easter and a day at the mall shopping. I will wear it for date night with my husband and much more.
My 3½-year-old niece said, “You’re a princess,” when she saw me on Easter. When I went to the mall, a Nordstrom personal stylist in the Joie section said, “It’d be great if you just kept walking around this section and modeling that dress!”
This is one way to wear this outfit!
This dress is very airy and light. It feels great against your skin. The shimmery fabric is awesome. The color and floral is gorgeous. I also love the neckline and cut of the top part of the dress.
It isn’t a prenatal dress but would even work with a small to medium bump during pregnancy if the bump is below the elastic.

This is the other option for wearing this outfit! Switching the shoes is a simple way to alter the look and feel of the outfit.
For more of a casual look that’s still dressy casual, I wore these Marc Fisher over-the-knee boots in grey. They give a sexier, fashionable feel to the outfit.

Rebecca Minkoff Small Love Crossbody Bag {Handbag Review}
I talk more about these boots in this post: Romantic, Feminine Fashion Look
This crossbody handbag is so sweet with the bows. It can be worn as a crossbody or used as a clutch. The color pink is really in this season, so a handbag with blush pink or pink color is a great addition to an outfit this spring and summer.

I accessorized this look with a beaded choker necklace that has longer ties, curved bar stud sparkly earrings, a grey wrap bracelet, and my Fitbit Alta. This lavender nail polish is very pretty for this time of year especially and goes with the dress well.
