I very recently bought this dress when Anthropologie was doing 40% off their sale section. What a good sale that was! I had a few items I was deciding between then I realized they were so cheap I could buy everything. I usually like to wait longer until I wear something new (it has to marinate in my closet – weird, I know), but it just felt right today. It was, after all, the first day of the second semester; plus New York just got hit with a blizzard, soooo… The bright colors felt right. You know what also felt right? Wearing shoes that I knew I wouldn’t fall on my face in. Once I got to Manhattan all the sidewalks were clear, but as you can see, where I live things are still patchy.
