LACE ACCENT LOVE & WUW


Lacy love! Oh Loft, your dresses are hit and miss for me but talk about a summer win in this little swing DRESS with the cutest lace cap sleeves and just wait until you see the back!




This little swing number is just perfect for casual and for dressy. I just love the midnight navy color and it’s so versatile. While I put Wedge Sandals and a pop of color with the Bright Tassel Earrings, you could make this Fourth of July inspired, you could add colors like yellow and hot pink and maybe do a fun funky purse! The possibilities are endless and your stomach endless as well because it hides all midsection imperfections. LOL
