I so need a dress like this - it's scorching hot here and Forever 21 has just opened. Hooray!

Fantastic! F21 is a great place for maxi dresses.

Lovely! Unfortunately the bra straps are showing, would've been better without them... :-)

Love the cut of this dress. Forever 21, really???

gothified,
thanks! but the straps are intentional. it's not a regular bra, more of a cropped tank underneath the dress. i like the look as long as the "bra" doesn't have adjustable straps. mine doesn't. come to think of it, i'll change the description from "bra top"...

Pret,
i've learned that, yes! that store surprised me. who knew? :) thanks again to chauss @ http://ckparis.blogspot.com/ for recommending i check it out for shorts...and more. :)

That's Not My Age,
go to F21 with an open mind and don't be put off by the visual clutter. xo

Sister Shirley,
i know, F21 was a real surprise to me. i hate trendy fast fashion, and yet, if you look, you can find some timeless pieces in F21.

Love your dress! So perfect/basic.

OOH just as I was about to comment - I see you made a post for me, sweet pea! Thank you. I want to skype. Let's skype!

Love this look on you, btw. My sister's blonde hair is short - not as short as yours, but a bob - and I'm so tempted to hack mine off. Scared, but tempted.

I also packed a similar dress to yours: long and black and really light and rolls up and never wrinkles. I wore it in the early 90s - it's in some of my photos. I love how you've got the black bra straps showing. I realised when I got here: I forgot my one good (black) bra. Speak soon- hope you're well - off to check 'my' post! big hug xox

that looks like a perfect dress to beat the heat and relax. I have similar one that I pull out when I just want to chill out. Usually after work or on the weekend. Glad forever 21 came through for you on this one! :)
