Emerald City. Emerald Dress?



Dress-Target
Belt-H&M
Tights-HUE
Flats-Steve Madden



It's always super disappointing when an outfit's color doesn't photograph as vibrant as it looks in person. This dress actually is a brighter, emerald color...not turquoisey-blue hued, as these photos suggest. However, I still love the dress in these photos....you just have to use your imagination a bit :)

There is something so great about a simple dress like this. The chevron-esque pattern, short little sleeves and finished with a belt. I am sold.
Also, I was digging the pattern/texture mixin' I had going on pairing it with my new black flats!




Sooooo, how are you guys?! I hope you're having a splendid weekend! As I am typing this, I have a boneless pork shoulder/butt beginning to cook in the crock pot. By the time I wake up in the morning, there should be some tender and delish pork ready for me to shred for pulled pork sandwiches.
I am one of those people who use the Super Bowl as an excuse to cook special foods, but don't give a hoot about the actual game. :)

  4. Oh wow the pulled pork sounds amazingly delicious! haha..

    And your dress looks so pretty! I love the subtle chevron print on it. Sad that the color isn't the same as in person. Still pretty though!

  7. Even if it's a different color in person, this dress looks seriously gorgeous here! I always get sad when I see bloggers wearing cute Target things that I somehow missed. I have to pay more attention.

  9. It's always so weird to me when the colors of my clothes seem so off despite my skin and hair seeming alright. I can imagine the rich emerald color you say your dress is, though it looks just as good in the teal it photographed as, hehe.
