Laced Up Sundress

IMG_7292.jpg

This sweet lace up dress is the tops in my book. It’s perfect for running around with my squad, aka my kids, and by “running around” I mean going to Target. It’s just as perfect for dance recitals, swim meets, brunch with the girls (my other squad) or a date with the man. The low cut lace up front adds a little sexiness, but the preppy collar, a-line cut and sweet print keep it modest. It has added detail with grommets for the laces and tassels at the end of the ties. The best detail – it’s under $25.

As with most of my dresses, this one works great as a tunic, paired with crop jeans. I love items in that can be worn several different ways. I’m leaving it as a sundress for now, since it’s been wonderfully warm out lately. I hope you are enjoying the start of summer!
