South Moon Under Dresses
Wednesday, June 8th, 2011 | 64 Comments 
I mentioned shopping at South Moon Under the other day. In recent weeks I’ve gotten two dresses from there. 
The first is a border or striped dress with a twist. 
[DV by Dolce Vita] Tan velvety pockets!! I’ve wanted a border onepiece for some time now. A la LOWRYS FARM inspired. But I never LOVED any I tried. Something was missing for me. They looked too boring or shaped me poorly. But when I saw this one I fell in love!
It’s a good thin summer knit material but could be layered for winter too. 
The pockets are not only different in color but texture too! Soft and velvety on the outside with a cool satin finish on the inside. Cap sleeves are a nice change from the usual tank silhouettes found on most summer border dresses. 
I dunno. Every time I see myself in this dress I feel really happy 
. It’s perfect. It’s probably my favorite item right now. 
And here is the black lace dress from last weekend! [Gracia] I wore it with a black blazer, black oxford heels, and black opaque tights with a bright red bow on 1 ankle. 
This would look like funeral attire if it weren’t DC where black isn’t just a color, it’s often a requirement. This dress is sweet with the lace and asymmetrical hem but also it sorta has a cool vibe since it’s black. 
It’s so difficult to photograph pitch black details… 
It’s funny. Some time ago I was looking at my dresses (pre-closet-overhaul) and thought “I don’t wear dresses like I used to.” There was a time where I hated wearing pants and wore dresses/skirts only. I couldn’t GET ENOUGH of dresses. Then it changed and I hardly ever wore dresses. 
Lately I think I’m at an even balance. I wear dresses/skirts as much as I wear pants/shorts.
There was no real point to that except that I find it interesting I’ve been buying dresses again lately.
Like my Pixie Market Blush Pink Dress….
Ok~~ I think I have enough new dresses. 
No more big shopping for a while or else I won’t have even enough time to wear it all. Plus I still have old stuff to share hahahaa~~ Actually I bought that border dress a month ago now? Wow, times flies so quickly.
