I Feel Pretty | Graduated
I had a different post scheduled today but on Monday I posted a photo from my son’s graduation that ended up creating quite a buzz around the dress I wore. You wanted to know where I got it and how I paired it up.
It’s a black sheath faux wrap dress from Tahari that I picked up on clearance for a steal. It was love at first sight. Bad fashion blogger that I am (I never really claimed to be a good one), I didn’t even get any full-length pictures of what I wore. So I tried my best to recreate the whole outfit from the night – black dress, coral accessories, leopard heels and a color block purse. Unfortunately, I can’t link up my exact dress but here’s a very similar one that’s definitely not so budget-friendly.

Tahari dresses fit me amazingly well, every time. The styles are so classic and are my go-to for special occasions. So when they go on sale, I try to add a new one to my collection. Here are some other Tahari styles that I love.
And here are a few more photos from the evening.

Just for fun, here’s a little throwback to my graduation year. I’m not sure which is more impressive, the ginormous sleeves or the even bigger hair. Hmm, maybe I didn’t always have such good taste in dresses!
