I fell in love with this LOFT striped flare dress when I tried it on here (see review here). I was surprised that it fit so well especially given that it’s a strapless. LOFT sizes usually run larger than Ann Taylor and it’s rare to find a dress that fits off the rack.
Even though it’s linen and wrinkle prone, it’s so darn cute that I will put up with having to steam it. It’ll be a perfect dress for my upcoming vacations too! I love it to pieces and would recommend it.
I love floppy hats for the Summer (especially on vacation and in California). Not only do they protect your face but they are so darn cute! I’ve been looking for a white/cream/beige and a solid navy one. If you are looking for a floppy hat, here are some options:
– White floppy hat with trim (ordering)
– Navy with bow detail (want)
– Pattern blue
– Kate Spade Stripe sun hat (pricey but cute)
– Calvin Klein striped
– Nine West
– Anthropologie Cream
If you aren’t a fan of strapless dresses, you can always throw a denim jacket or a shirt over it.

Do you have a floppy hat?
Wonderful warm weather outfit! The dress is lovely with the alternating white and yellow stripes. I have no problem with floppy hats, and I certainly don’t have a problem with this one. Nice sandals to go with the outfit. You look amazing, Annie!

Yes, I have a floppy hat. It’s so easy and many people find it usual so they compliment that they like my hat.
They are so fun!
Your outfit screams, “HAPPINESS!” Sunny yellow and white is always a fun color combo. This makes me miss California in the summertime, ach, why did I move!? -L
Lol it does make me quite happy wearing this. It gets too hot here where I live sometimes but I shouldn’t complain – better than freezing right? 🙂

Yes, DEFINITELY better than freezing! Ok, that’s it. I think I kind of need this dress in my life. Placing order on Loft right now!
Lol keep me posted when you get it!
Such a cute look…so springy!!! You look like you walked straight out of the Hamptons!

You look absolutely gorgeous here Annie! I can’t decide which picture to pin! The strapless version of the striped dress looks so good on you and I love your floppy hat. I tried on one two weeks ago and I think the bigger they are the better. 🙂
Aw thanks Jess:) You are sweet. I hope my white one works out. I agree that the floppier they are the better. Hehehe
The white one looks so chic. I love the blue one you pinned with the bow.
I’m ordering the navy with bow too so I’ll keep you posted:)
Thanks Annie. I will look forward to the update.
such a pretty and cute summery look!
