lace midi dress (less than $100, it’s a dupe for this designer version)
I stumbled upon this lace midi dress when I was shopping in Charlotte this past weekend and immediately thought it looked really similar to this designer version that was popular last year. One look at the price tag and it was meant to be – my version is less than $100! If you have weddings coming up this spring and summer, this dress would be perfect. Technically you can wear it to a black tie wedding (since it’s midi-length), but you can also wear it to more casual weddings because of the sheer overlay on top. And no matter how tall you are, it looks good! I am kinda short (5’3) so I usually don’t like long dresses on me… however, this one works with every body type. I’m a little obsessed π
Today is supposed to be 75 degrees in Winston… and then we’re expecting a SNOW STORM over the weekend. What the heck is up with this weather!?!

Sounds like New England weather. It's 53 today, and we are getting snow tomorrow also!
I love the midi dress! That really is the perfect wedding dress for every formality. It's super dainty but still fun with the shorter underdress.

I'm not used to wearing dresses that length. I got one (for $35!) in the mail yesterday and tried it on but wasn't sure about the length. But it's such a great dress and I'll just wear some heels. Yours looks great!
This dress is a dream! So pretty:P

I can't believe you are 5'3" – you look SO tall! Great dress.
People who meet me in person for the first time always go "Wow you're short! Way shorter than you look in photos!" haha

Hey Caroline! The blue color actually sold out since I first posted this! They may restock it in a few days or a week or two – I would keep checking!
Gorgeous dress!

Have you ever done a tutorial on how you curl your hair? So lovely β€
Hey Katie, Yes I have! At the bottom of this post I included a YouTube video. It's a bit old however I still curl my hair the same way π https://www.southerncurlsandpearls.com/2016/01/all-about-hair-how-i-curl-my-hair-keep.html
The prettiest dress on you! I had a similar dress from last year and it was one of my faves! So cute for a spring wedding <3

Hey Abril! This dress actually does come in white too. I think it would be perfect for a rehearsal dinner! π
Gorgeous dress and perfect colors and details for spring.
You look so pretty in that dress! That color is perfect for Spring. Same here on Long Island for the weather. Nice today (about 50) and 3-5 inches of snow tomorrow! Uggh I'm done with the cold and snow! Need Summer now!!
OMG this outfit is so perfect as a wedding guest!! The only problem, you'd probably look better than the bride.

Love your blog! I want to save and buy one chanel bag. I saw in an older post you pictured the vanity bag. Would you recommend this bag? I love it and am looking st that and a white flap bag?
The dress is beautiful !! You are lucky though. I live in New Orleans area and it never snows!! Be careful driving in it. I used to live in the northeast and know how it can be .
This dress is so gorgeous, I love how you styled it!
