Have you noticed that eyelet is just about everywhere in stores lately? Eyelet dresses, eyelet skirts, eyelet shirts – they’re invading clothing racks everywhere.

I’m not upset about it. There is something about eyelet that screams “summer,” don’t you think? I know it does for me. So, when I spotted this bright colored blue eyelet dress at LOFT this past weekend, I knew it had to be mine. I love that the fabric is such a bright color (not only is it blue, but the lining underneath the eyelet is a bright kelly green hue) – eyelet doesn’t just have to be a soft shade!
I know this dress is going to get a lot of wear during the summer months – it will be great for getting gussied up for a brunch with a pair of heels, but will also work well with a pair of flats for a more casual style.
But really, I think these heels were made to go with this dress. They’re Betsey Johnson, and I picked them up on clearance wayyyy back in 2007. Am I dating myself? Yes. But I’ve kept them in mint condition since I adore them. I actually remember wearing them the night Justin proposed to me!
