Stripes all over

Heels from Country Road (similiar here)
Belt & wrist candy from Thailand markets- see my June posts

I received this dress is the post last week from the lovely folk at Shop Sosie online boutique.  A striped maxi dress is one of those classic Spring wardrobe pieces, and the gathered elastic waist on this dress makes it even better!  The fabric is the softest jersey and it is such a beautifully comfortable dress to wear.  

See my post HERE to hear more about hair and make up artist Miss Aimmey.
