Shoes: Christian Louboutin – size 34.5 (buy here)
Purse: Chanel WOC
Earrings: Target {old} – (similar here or adorable)
Bracelet: Pearl necklace gifted from sister (similar here)
I think the dress is very affordable at only $39. It’s a thicker polyester material so its not see through or wrinkle prone. It’s unfortunate that it’s unlined. I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about the pink exposed zipper but I don’t mind it.
I wanted to keep my accessories as minimal as possible so I went with some dangly earrings and a pearl necklace worn as a bracelet. I wanted the focus to be on the dress.

I am in love with my new peplum dress. I was so happy that it runs small – perfect for petite ladies! It’s not too tight and you can easily move and walk. Most of the items I have gotten from Lulus.com run really large so I couldn’t wait to share this with you.
It’s such a fun dress and definitely one of my more “sexy” ones : ) I can see wearing this to a party or on a date night with hubby. I adore navy and pink together and this dress is so me! I was happy to see that the navy is a true navy and not so dark that it looks black. This dress also comes in coral red/purple. It’s one of those dresses that just makes you feel good.

Lovely dress. Very elegant.
where did you get that! I want that dress 🙂 so lovely and classy
Love it! I think this is way more practical than the orange/purple one. You look so chic! I love it with the earrings and pearls you chose.
This dress looks incredibly sexy on you. I am surprised that it fits you so well since most of Lulus stuff run big. I like how you kept the accessories to a minimum =)
I got it from Lulus.com and I believe there is still a size small left 🙂
It is def one of my more sexy dresses but it's so much fun! I was shocked when it fit too because all my other stuff is pretty huge and had to have my mom tailor them.
Thanks Jacqueline! I agree- way more practical than the orange/purple one:)
Thank you Ces!
This flatters your figure so well. I've been in love with peplum lately.
You look soooo beautiful! This dress was made for you! I love navy and soft pink as well 🙂 I've done a few combinations with these colours too 🙂 xo Nikki
This is gorgeous on you – one of my favorites! Love the peplum detail & the mix of colors…your body looks amazing in it!! 🙂

That dress is so gorgeous on you! I've been so leery of ordering from Lulus because like you said, their items run large. I wish they carried their dresses in size XS! But this dress fits you perfectly.

What are my thoughts on this dress? Simple- alluring, beautiful, and charming! With baseball season gearing up, you just hit a Grand Slam (not just a Home Run!) with this dress and this outfit. Impressive looks by you, Annie.

I actually really like the pink exposed zipper. It adds a nice touch.

Such a sophisticated but sexy dress…I am in love with the look! The exposed zipper is totally darling on you…and I can't tell the dress is unlined at all. It's so flattering to you. I've got to get some peplum in my wardrobe!

Love it. I have a lot of functions coming up for my husband's squadron and this would be perfect for them. You're amazing, as usual! I love the pearl necklace worn as a bracelet!
You look great in that dress! It really showcases your figure. I was searching for other blogs and I came across extrapetite.com–I wondered if you heard about it, it's so similar to yours!
That is a pretty dress!
I luv the look, especially the pink pearls!
you look soooo elegant and chic! I absolutely love navy and pink together too. Peplum is definitely bold, yet so classy. Great choice!! 🙂
That dress is adorable. I can tell that it makes you feel pretty. I'm graduating this coming May and I think that will be the perfect dress underneath. A perfect blend of sexy & class and oh so cute! Thanks for the heads up girl!
Oh you look so glam!….and I'm such a sucker for an exposed zipper too 😉 I do think this dress fits you quite nicely. I've been excited to participate in the peplum trend as well. I haven't seen any peplum tops yet that I'm inclined to purchase but I'm definitely keeping an eye out!
GORGEOUS! I love this look on you. I think you absolutely styled this outfit really well.

You look stunning. The dress fit you very well.
I love this silhouette and fit but wish it were one solid color instead. You're mastering the bun look! 🙂
My first time commenting. Love your blog; it is one of my daily rotation of petite style blogs. I LOVE this look. The dress is absolutely perfect for your shape, your legs look miles long, I loveLOVElove navy, especially with pink or coral. Just love it. Thanks for sharing!
It's perfect on you 🙂 very pretty!!!
Annie, this dress is gorgeous and it fits your curves beautifully! I'm a fan of navy and pink too – I think your husband needs to plan a hot date night for you guys soon! 😉
cute dress 🙂 it would look really cute with a messy side pony tail too!
The dress looks PERFECT on you! I am actually browsing lulus for dresses and was wondering how their sizing was. I'd totally go for this dress except the bust area miiight not work for my smaller chest. Great dress choice!
I think I may try it myself! The price=amazing and I love that it is sexy without losing elegance. Having a full bust I've found difficulty with similar styles –actually fitting like the blue line of this one. But the pink here seems to do well with hiding cleavage keeping it classy sexy instead of club wear 🙂
–Are you using a filter on your camera? These pics have such a nice soft feel to the. Maybe it is just the pink blue combo appealing to my girly senses?
don't you look ready for a night out. 🙂
personally peplum is not my style, only because I think it makes my hips look wide. 🙁
but you rock on!

Really cute and sexy. It is really you!
Omg…love love the dress and pumps combo! I'd totally get that dress, love the form fit on top and the skirt, the peplum section is perfect for covering up a bit of tummy! I'd wear it with a cropped structured jacket…just lovely! Thanks for sharing! :))
That dress is soooo cute! Super flattering on you!
