Recently I was contacted by the lovely Donna from Lesley Evers asking if I would be interested in reviewing one of their dresses. It took me about three seconds to say YES because they're all adorable and in case you hadn't noticed I have a slight addiction to sundresses--it is in my blog name afterall. Donna helped me narrow down my choice to the Paige dress in the My Garden print. D.C humidity has been oppressive lately and we decided this would be the perfect way to stay cool.
What could be better than coming home to a beautiful packages like this?
On Friday I jumped out of bed at 7:30 realizing my alarm hadn't gone off and I had about 15 minutes to get ready. I threw on my Paige dress figuring it would be the perfect day to give it a try. I instantly felt more put together and after grabbing some pearl studs, and gold Jack Rogers, I was out the door doing my best to channel Betty Draper.
Uncanny resemblance to the Paige dress right?
Friday ended up being a crazy busy day with work and errands but I was comfortable and cool the entire day. The shift style is incredibly flattering, fitted up top with just a bit of flare at the hips. The bf even gave his seal of approval on this one.
After work, we packed up the car and headed for Ocean City, MD to visit friends at the beach. A three hour car ride is definitely a test for a dress but fourteen hours after my 7:30 am wake up call and I was still loving it!
Seconds after arriving my stylish girlfriend asked me where I had gotten my dress so I know this one is a winner! Thank you to Lesley Evers and company for being so kind and for making such gorgeous dresses! Annnd, there's a gift for you too...

ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind post! So happy you love the dress and love reading all the flattering comments from your readers.
ReplyDeletePretty pretty dress! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the photo you took of yourself wearing it. In the car? Your legs look great.
ReplyDeleteGreat dress. Is it lined in cotton? I didn't notice anything written about lining. Unlined is great! I see so many nice dress lined in polyester making them too hot to wear when it's very hot outside.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the print...how cute! The Penelope dress is just darling! Do they fif true to size? They look light and comfortable. xx
ReplyDeleteJust darling! Your are one lucky lady!!!
ReplyDeleteSweetheart, the dress is just absolute perfection, and thank you for the glowing review! I am bookmarking now so I can go visit. What an honor to be selected! Hugs to you dear xoxoxx
ReplyDeleteI immediately ordered a Lesley Evers dress of my very own after reading this. I've got a trip coming up next week and I had visions of strolling the streets in my new tunic. Problem is...It has been 5 days and my order is still "pending". I called AND emailed, hoping to find out of it was going to be sent out soon and haven't gotten a response. Looks like I'll be going on vacation without my dress. :-/
ReplyDeleteI was really looking forward to wearing it but now I'm kind of irritated and will probably just return it since it'll likely arrive after my vacation.
Puttin' On The GRITS - We are terribly sorry for the mix-up!! Please check your email. We will get this fixed ASAP.
ReplyDeleteI have the exact dress in the same print, and I LOVE it. It arrived 2 days ago and I wore it yesterday. It is perfect! - comfortable yet structured and polished. I wore it with a pair of cutoff jeans (chasing toddler around a shopping center heh), and flat yellow sandals, and I felt so happy! Must be the cheerful print. Will be ordering more & I can't wait for their new prints.
