Pretty As A Postcard

j crew postcard off shoulder dress

Happy Tuesday, friends! It's been a minute since I had a chance to put together a post. I had a great time enjoying the Rochester Fringe Festival last week, but seeing so many shows left me no time to blog. I'm trying to create a better work/life balance for myself though, so I'm hoping I can get back on schedule soon. That said, I'll be starting rehearsals for a show in a week or two... so I'm trying to figure things out quickly without putting too much pressure on myself.  :)

It may be the end of September, but it's been hot as all get-out for the last couple of weeks. I actually don't mind that much, since this summer was pretty temperate and I didn't get much of a chance to wear seasonal clothes. It's going to cool down later this week, but before it does, I'll be wearing this J.Crew postcard print dress as much as humanly possible.

Ashley was the ideal enabler and convinced me to buy this dress when it was on sale. I'm really glad I did, because it's the kind of dress that works in nearly any situation. I love the off-the-shoulder neckline (so much that I actually like wearing my hair up with it – and that never happens!) and it's so easy to wear. Whether you're running errands or on vacation, this is a great go-to. Unfortunately, it's completely sold out, but I found a few good dupes! Scroll down to the outfit details for my picks.

As much as I'm enjoying wearing my summer wardrobe, I'm finally feeling ready to do fall things! I hope there'll be some apple and pumpkin picking in my future. What are you hoping to do this fall?

  1. D'oh, I totally waited too long! Oh well -- I'm going to live vicariously through you. It looks phenomenal and I agree that the neckline is perfect for an updo!

  2. This dress is darling! I'm glad Ashley convinced you to buy it, because it looks fantastic on you. <3 I can definitely relate to figuring out a life/blog balance. Having a month off blogging really helped reset my brain with blogging, though, and I feel so refreshed and ready to come back! I can't wait to see what fall things you get to do! I'm hoping to at least do a pumpkin patch, and host a costume party, and who knows what else!
