The 90's Called...

...and they want their dress back!  dress-Gap(similar here ), flats-Dr. Scholls(more flats here ), necklace-Thrifted This petite floral frock reminds me of the kind of dress I would have killed for back in the 90's. My teenage-self would have paired it with black tights, combat boots, and an oversized cardigan. Come to think of it, I may just do that here this fall/winter because the grunge-inspired feminine style is all the rage. I keep seeing younger versions of myself everywhere. Earlier this year, I came across a group of undergrads playing hacky-sack, wearing knit caps, and listening to Red Hot Chili Peppers, and I seriously wondered if I had walked into a time warp! 😁 Yes, the 90's are back, and if you lived through the styles the first time around, be mindful of how you interpret this retro trend as a grownup adult person versus a teenager. 

I'm a Loser, Baby

dress-Gap(similar here ), scarf- Octavia & Co . via Le Tote , bag- Foley & Corinna via Le Tote , ring-Jewel Mint(similar here at Poshmark You may recall this dress from this post . Yes it's a maternity piece, but the basic shift silhouette works post-baby as well. Plus pockets!!! I styled this bright-red frock with accessories from my latest tote. I had taken a break from subscriptions services during my pregnancy and decided to treat myself with some rentals to play around with for a few summertime outfits.  To be honest, there's not much outfitting happening this summer. I've been on maternity leave since beginning of June and my days are full of recovery, breastfeeding, diapering, napping and spending time with family. So yeah, I'm a "loser" staying in, wearing my husband's boxer briefs as shorts and nursing tanks.
