Happy Sunday everyone!

It has been raining nonstop in the metro this past week, and a bright sunny sky was quite the sight to see. My friend and I decided to go out today to have a little fun with this lovely dress, Linda of Martofchina has sent me. Thank you so much, I love this piece to bits.

 Since chiffon is a soft and lightweight fabric, I decided to wear this biker jacket to toughen up the look.

I chose this dress not only for its versatility (which I will show you a little later) but for the great quality and affordable price tag as well. Can you believe this outfit only costs $7.50?

Let me show you the first way to wear this dress: Cinch up the waist with a tiny belt for a more formed and body conscious look. This looks best for when you are going to work or formal occasions where a more structured look is desired.

Alternative look: Wear it on its own and let the drapes flow against the wind. This is a more casual way to wear this, which is perfect when you are going on a night out on town.

You can also drop one of the sleeves so this dress will accentuate the asymmetric cut on the neckline.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post as much as I did. I want to post a little shout out to my amazing friend, Dionne for these lovely shots. Do check out his blog here.

Tell me guys what you think, and don't forget to hype this look on LB. :)

Sweet Temptation

Happy Friday, Everyone! I hope you are all enjoying the chilly weather right now. I know I am. It makes dressing up a lot more fun since I can play with a lot layers. But before I bid my spring dresses goodbye, let me show you a cute little piece I have been eyeing for quite a while from ROMWE . This is the Backless Nude Shift Dress I have recently gotten from this store. I love the texture and the draping on this one. It makes me feel like I am somewhat, a Goddess ( in my dreams! ) I absolutely adore the back! Love the little bow that holds it all together. Too sweet for words! And I love the side cut-out as well. It adds such a wonderful effect to this dress. Pardon my consistent gawking, but is it not to die for? Speaking of things to die for, I am currently reading Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children . Recently, I have been interested in twisted/tragic novels such as these, so if you could recommend any good ones please leave me a
