Happy Friday everyone!!! Still working on my photos from Bora Bora so I wanted to share this dress that I just got during my pop in at LOFT. I am going through some major shopping withdrawal so I just had to go in there on my way to work. Much to my surprise- I found tons of 00p items still left in the 40% racks! Yippee!
Belt: H & M gray suede belt- size XS (similar HERE)
Shoes: Ann Taylor Granite Suede Pumps– size 5 (sold HERE)

I was rushing because the sun was going down and before you know it- I would be taking pictures in the dark outside….LOL I was pretty panicked!!!
I didn’t even try this dress on in-store…so I was hoping it was going to fit and woo hoo – it fits!! W/out a belt, it looks a bit funny but I figured I’d throw on this gray belt to give it some shape and I liked how it turned out. The length is just perfect for me and the flutter sleeves are adorable!!!
It’s hard to tell but the pattern is pink and white subtle swirls- super cute.
I love that I can wear this to work and as a fun dress. Got it on sale for $69.99 with an additional $40% off so it came to around $41- not bad for a cute LOFT dress!
I was pleased that the arm holes weren’t too big, most LOFT dresses are hit and miss for me. The neckline is conservative so you can wear to work- which is perfect for me!
I also got these items while I was there:
1. Gray Cowl Neck Sweater ( I LOVE sweater dresses for Fall/Winter)
2. Petite Flutter Tee (got in pink and green)
I also got a jacket, another older ruffle top on major clearance – all of which I cannot find online so it must be really old items but all were 00P or XXSP- shocker those sizes were still left. Maybe they were waiting for me:) Stay tuned for those posts!!!
Look how different this dress looks online:
Doesn’t even look like the same dress huh? The neckline looks like a cowl neck on the model but straight on me- strange! The sleeves even look a bit different too. And it’s interesting how they styled it!! I wanted to keep it simple so I just added a belt and simple accessories- which do you like better- the way the model is wearing it or just simple?
Awww you look ADORABLE!!! I like it better on you than the model!!! 🙂
This dress is so, so cute! Man, if they had used your picture on the LOFT website, I would've given this dress a shot! You look ten times better than the model.
Aww this is really cute!! The model makes it look so dull.. 🙁

I agree with the others — you make the dress look better than the model.
totally second everyone else – you're wayyy foxier than the model 🙂 so pretty!
I love this dress! looks better on you!
I like your version better, I just love gray and pink together! And I can't wait for your post on your other LOFT purchases! 🙂
You wear it better and that dress is so you. I think it looks different on you because you are much fuller in the chest area (I envy ya!!). Pink dress and gray belt look great together.
Yup, it definitely looks better on you than on the model! You look gorgeous, looking forward to your vacation pictures.

omg you got so tan from your vacation didn't you? i love the dress and the belted look. the grey pumps are hot too!
I'm soo lusting after grey suede shoes myself! The AT ones look fantastic! Good deal on the dress too 🙂
Thanks ladies!! I like the color combo of pink and gray better… 🙂
@Ping- I got super tan on my vaca and that's wearing high SPF! LOL I'm already starting to peel:(
What a lovely dress! I saw it in store but didn't try it on. I guess my mind is on jacket and sweater at this time of the year. It looks gorgeous on you. You look super tan after your vacation. I am looking forward to see vacation's photos. Have a great weekend!
the dress looks lovely on you. i dunno, i find AT and ATL dresses to be ill fitting on me. Even a 00 is not a perfect fit, and I'm bigger than you! have you tried any bebe dresses lately? i just bought two dresses that fit amazingly!
@PLG- I would have never thought to buy this dress had it not been on sale…and it's not as cute on the hanger as it is on the body 🙂 It's still warm where I live so its hard for me to get in winter mode..lol
@Leena- thank you! It's hit or miss with AT and ATL dresses for me- without the belt, this dress is weird looking…I love bebe dresses- which ones did you get! I wanna see!!
Wow! Your Ann Taylor Loft rocks with all of the great deals they have in your size. The dress looks so beautiful on you, I love those soft muted tones and those shoes are fabulous. Definitely prefer the look on you as opposed to the model. I really don't think that material looks right with dark opaque tights.
You look adorable! I really love this dress on you! There is no way that the two dresses are the same. They look completely different.
aw love those shoes~~the shape definitely reminds me of the simple louboutin pumps…
I love it! I just bought this dress at Ann Taylor this weekend for $$17
