Dressed For Time Offers Top Fashion, Beauty & Lifestyle Blog Tips For The Best Popular Chic Fall & Winter Style Outfit Inspiration in Chicago

Carmen Marc Valvo Midi Dress

April 24, 2015

I’m still undecided on this one! It was a recent rental from Rent the Runway, and I guess I expected it to be more youthful based on the pictures online.. I tried to bring a little fun to the look with gold chain jewelry and these burgundy heeled booties. The material of the dress has that drapery-chic sheen to it, but the print is really pretty and I adore the colors. The length is perfect for me, but I seem to be lacking a bit of generosity in the bust department to make the dress it’s most flattering (there was some extra fabric up top). The other thing is where I would wear it to.. Too fancy for brunch or work, a bit too much of a look for a date, and not quite glam enough for a nighttime event. A daytime shopping event would be perfect, because even though the shoes feature one of the highest heels that I own, they’re actually pretty comfortable!

      Thank you 😀 The print is so pretty, and I learned to love that sheen on the fabric. It caught the light beautifully.
