Instant Outfit: The Perfect White Dress

Before my feverish coma took over the weekend... I almost went into a "greatest find coma". There are different varieties of great finds - there are vintage finds, thrift finds, and coveted designer (for a great price) finds. It was the third that I stumbled upon early in my weekend.

If you happen to live in a town with a buy-sell-trade store like Buffalo Exchange and Crossroads Trading Co. then you have probably experienced what I am about to tell you...

I exchanged a load of clothes that I hardly ever wear and found myself with a $70 credit to spend as I wish. While perusing the racks, I happened to look up and there in front of my eyes was the most beautiful, perfect, spring-like white CHLOE dress.

That's right a CHLOE dress - one I never thought I would be able to afford, but with my store credit it was at my fingertips!

There was no decision to make, I walked out a happy woman.. now Instant Outfit explores ways to style this perfect dress...or any spring white dress that you have hanging in your closet!

I love that dress. I bought a similar one from anthropolgie and I wear it with a string of black museum way pearls (tahitian necklace). It is a really nice contast... sort of the opposite of the LBD and white pearls.
