I went through several dress options before I made the final choice for my sister’s bachelorette party. At first, I thought I wanted short and spicy. I played around with this little electric blue number, as well as this two piece set. I loved both, especially the colors, but struggled with the fact that I probably wouldn’t wear them much after the final fling. Then, I thought I’d go for a full blown maxi…. but it sold out before I could snag it (I hate when that happens….). So, I waited a week or so before beginning the search again. That weekend, I went to dinner with my girlfriend and she showed up wearing the prettiest little dress. I knew it would be perfect for the weekend. At first, she told me I should just borrow it… but I loved it too much that I had to have my own. It ended up being such a great choice for a warm evening out in Palm Springs…

This dress is pretty much my new favorite go-to. From the breezy fit, smocked top, and cute off the shoulder ruffles, I knew I would be able to wear it so many times post party. It’s casual enough for a day date and dressy enough for an evening of sunset cocktails. Toss it on with cute sandals and wear it to a shower…. or a low heel for a rehearsal dinner.  A straw hat and neutral slides makes for the perfect casual daytime look. For cooler evenings, a casual denim jacket is the perfect lightweight layer…..

Tiare Hawaii is a new favorite for dresses (and adorable rompers and tops) just like this one. A few other favorites from their line include this off the shoulder dress (I ultimately decided on the blue one, but it was a hard decision), adorable tassel romper (so cute), gorgeous printed blouse, and this pink floral off the shoulder maxi dress. Again, they’re fun options for a tropical vacation, shower, wedding, or just a casual day with the girls or signifiant other!
