The Patterned Dress - Sensible Stylista

The Patterned Dress

For today's post, I've styled a cute yet comfy work-friendly look for ya'll.  I got this dress from OASAP a couple weeks ago, and I was worried because I wasn't feelin' the length.  I thought it was way too long, but sa'll good cause I think I pulled it off ::insert winky face here::  To create a leaner silhouette, I belted the piece to draw the eye up higher giving the illusion of longer legs.  I also threw on black tights & super-high boots to give me extra height.  I wanted to look as "skinny" as possible cause the checkered pattern wasn't doing me any favors.

    Love. Love. Love. Just one question: the OASAP site show's this as "One Size". What size do you normally wear and how was the fit?

    1. Thanks =D The fit was good~ I usually wear XS or S! I think it'd fit someone in size S or M well though =)

  15. The dress shipped quickly and even arrived over a week early. I am amazed and speechless! I never thought a dress ordered online for such little money could be this good.
