These photos are a few days old, I'll admit: I have no idea what day they were taken, that my memory completely fails me speaks volumes of my stress level and my exhaustion level over the past few days. Ahh, to think back to a sunnier, pinker time! April is always a crazy month at the College where I work. A lot of late nights and weekend shifts in the admissions office. I think I wore this outfit this past weekend to a student function?!
Dress: Delightful Dozen swap from Mel
Sweater: old Express hand-me-down from class-mate
Belt: Savers ($3)
Tights: TjMaxx ($4)
Shoes: old UO ($30 ?)
Necklace: Dolly and Boy
Photos: Chris
Another thing to admit: I've been holding this Forever 21 dress of Mel's hostage for about a month and a half. It's been hanging fully styled on my wall, I think I was just waiting for the perfect spring day to break it out. Though, I was relieved to ship it off to the next Delightful girl, clearly I'm bad at getting myself down to the post office. Sorry Mel! You can scroll down to check out how Mel herself and Kristen from LeProust Vintage styled the dress. Also, thank you to my very handsome and stylist photographer, Chris. Sometomes it's nice to have someone else take the photos!
(yowza!)

Love this! That bright shade of pink is really a fabulous color on you :)
this print is AMAZING on you. I love the pink floral and the wine colored tights.
Perfect spring look.
this is one of my favorite outfits on you so far! :)
Love it!!!
I love the tights with it. reminds me of easter candy (particularly starburst jelly beans). love your hair,
I really like the addition of the dark tights. I think it grounds the dress. Great things.

awww i actually have this exact dress and I've only worn it once (about a year ago). I haven't touched it since, but after seeing how the three of you have worn it I'm tempted to take it out of my closet. :)
by the way, your hair is looking gorgeous as usual.
This outfit is so fun and bright! I like how you paired it with the oxfords - very cute.
I love the way you styled the dress. It's perfect for those days when it "looks" nice out side but it is still chilly. I love it!
Wish I had a stylish photographer. Lucky! Great dress, I love the braided belt.

Great style for that dress, I love the different shades of pink you put together. Hope your job lets you breathe soon!

This outfit is just gorgeous, and has reminded me once again of my need for a berry colored cardi!
I'm the worst about going to the post office. I have a bunch of thank you notes that have been sitting on my desk for why to long now, just waiting to go out. Ay!
beautiful outfit, just perfect for spring!

I'm in the same boat! I'm holding like seriously.. 4 or 5 things hostage right now for the DD! Haha! You look amazing in this dress! My college has been pretty crazy for the last month (even for faculty) so I know what you're going through! But art colleges are such a fun atmosphere!
Pink never looked so pretty. xo.
LOVE this! It's so springy and bright. The weather 'round these parts has been so dreary all week; it's nice to see some color.
How pretty! And I love seeing how the other girls style it too :)
A gorgeous dress and a lovely outfit all around!
Lovely outfit! Such beautiful, summery colours. You make me want to go to a beach in that dress!

I really like you in bright color- this pink is adorable!
What a nice dress! And you have such lovely hair, I'm jealous (:
I bought a ridiculously similar belt at Wal-Mart over the weekend!
arghh one dress so many styles, makes me feel insane that i have a hideously stuffed closet....insane but not guilty :) gorgeous as always
That dress looks gorgeous on you!!
I love how you pulled the darker shades out in this. It's such a pretty floral!
This is really lovely. It seems different than a lot of your stuff (i.e. I don't see you wearing bright pink a lot) but it still conveys your style beautifully. I love it!
What a fabulous color. I love this Delightful Dozen stuff you guys do. I think I like your styling the best of this dress. I love belts over cardigans like that. So pretty!

You look great! I love the bright colors in this outfit. I wish I was better at putting together colorful outfits.
oh wow, SO gorgeous. you always manage to make a fancy outfit like this look effortless and comfy! heart!
I love love love this outfit. It's so pretty and spring-y
lovely dress! i love your hair too, i wish mine was wavy like that
Love this look. The colors are fabulous on you and, as usual, your hair is fantastic.
I think I like the way you styled it the best. although instead of the opaque, burgundy tights, I'd go with something patterned and sheer, maybe light pink polka-dots or something like that. So spring!
