After a whirlwind Friday of appointments and shows, I was so happy to only have one event on my agenda on Saturday: the RewardStyle party. I had such a great time catching up with out-of-town blogging friends and making a few new ones! This time last year I would say I really didn’t have any close friends in the blogging world. A few acquaintances, yes, but no one I felt comfortable enough to say, “hey let’s attend this event together.” Happy to report that I’m no longer friendless and had the best time at the party! Fashion week can be stressful and a little intimidating, so being around people you feel comfortable with can make all the difference.
Now on to my look! I’ll admit I was a little hesitant at first about this Elizabeth and James dress. It’s very fitted and sexier than the typical fit and flare dresses I tend to wear. But I have to say I ended up really loving it by the end of the day! l got so many complements and it felt nice stepping out of my comfort zone. Prior to the party, TheStylisted was kind enough to provide hair and makeup for me and a few of my friends. How it works is they bring the beauty to you! You can book hair and makeup appointments right on your phone to get services done in your own home. I just went with a blowout and a bronze smokey eye. Sometimes less is more ya know?
I was wearing…
Cutout dress | Sandals | Clutch | Watch | Sunglasses | Bracelets

You look great! I’m thinking of getting this dress for a wedding I’m going to. Just wondering if you could tell me what size you’re wearing? I’ve heard this dress fits small. I usually wear a 2 so wondering if I should go with a 4..
Katie says
Size 2!
