Peach Blossom || One Dress, Four Ways

one dress four ways

One of the many things I love about being a part of the blogging community is having the opportunity to gain inspiration from other fashion-inclined ladies. I'm constantly amazed by the creativity of other bloggers, and I really enjoy seeing how they see the world a little bit differently and express themselves through the lens of their own personal style. When Unique Vintage contacted me to see if I'd like to be a part of their "One Dress, Four Ways" concept, I responded with an emphatic "yes!" – not only because I got the chance to wear this gorgeous peach dream of a dress, but I'll get to see how three other wonderful bloggers wore it as well! For now, read on to see how I've styled this pretty + peachy piece.

I don't think I'm always the best at coming up with innovative ways to wear a garment – many times, I let the piece to speak for itself – but I do love thinking of ways to style it into a complete ensemble. I've mentioned before that I love versatility in a dress, so I really appreciate that this one has detachable straps (which I opted to wear here). This light peach color is so lovely for summer, and though it'd look fantastic with heels for a more formal event, I dressed it down a bit with flats and gave it a more Southern twist with my parasol and hair flower. As far as the fit goes, I'm in between sizes on this dress – unfortunately, the size large was just too small in the bust, and while sizing up fixed that problem, it's a little too loose in the waist – so I see a quick trip to the tailor in my future. Despite the slight sizing issue, this is a dress that'll be staying in my closet for a long time to come; it's so pretty that I'll have to host a garden party so I can wear it more often! Unique Vintage has so many beautiful vintage dresses – make sure to check out their whole collection!
