Outfit Post: Black and White Floral Dress

It's been a while since the last outfit post. and quite frankly I bet nobody reads my outfit posts because I look like a kid who just escaped from school. Must be because of my height. But here I am still doing crazy outfit posts especially if there are occasions when I could dress up.

So last night was our thanksgiving dinner with people at work, and people related to work, and people who we got to know through work. This is what I wore, a black floral dress from Adah Belle with black lace flats. I just brought a black blazer along just in case it was too cold, and of course, my grandmother's ever trusty leather bag which is so much older than me.

Filigree Lace Earrings were to complement the lace design of my flats


Well it's really no secret that I am uber comfortable walking around in flats especially in a big venue like Astoria Plaza where our gathering was held. But do you make it a point to wear sexier heels even if it hurts throughout the night? I know a lot of women who have spent half of their lives walking effortlessly in heels- I am somewhere stuck in the middle of it...

  1. i love the details of the dress. daisys are on of my favorite flowers on print. :) i think the dress suits you well. :) I love looking at people in dresses mostly because I don't usually have the opportunity to wear dresses and whenever I do, I back out last minute. :| At least you know how to walk in heels. I don't even own a pair. But we all need to learn sometime. :) Congratulations on the outfit post. you look lovely. thanks for dropping by my blog.

    1. Yes! Got hooked and borrowed as many as I could! I just wish I could afford the whole library you know.. But I think that the day could come. It's really interesting how Gaiman can make stories out of legends and icons... =p
