When Questhaven Fashions gave me the opportunity to select an item from the shop, I scoured their adorable inventory and selected the Clementine Dress. This 20s style dress stood out to me immediately! I love the soft color, the beading, and the pleated skirt.
Something else that made me want to feature this dress was to demonstrate ways to style it. I think sometimes people will see items that they really like, but aren’t sure what to wear with them, or where to wear them. I’ve styled up this gem in two different ways, one for a day off of work, and one for a weekend evening!
FOR DAY.
Wavy hair, flats, over-the-shoulder purse, minimal jewelry.

I hope this gives you some inspiration for future closet additions, and for ways to wear items you already own!

Have you been editing your photos differently in the last couple weeks or am I imagining it? I love the warm glow about them.
Thank you and yes! I didn’t used to edit them and now I do. I talked about it a bit in this post: http://sidewalkready.com/2012/05/rainy-sunday/
Well if you ever feel like doing a tutorial I for one would love to know how you make them look so awesome!
What a great dress, and I loved both pairings of it. I was pretty much sold on its amazingness as soon as you said it was 1920′s inspired!
You look so beautiful! What a lovely dress.
The dress looks great on you! Love how you styled it the two different ways!
