In the past month or so, I'd seen some buzz surrounding the launch of Gwynnie Bee, a subscription site for clothing -- the Netflix of clothes, if you will. Currently, they are only carrying sizes 10 and up, so when I had the opportunity for a free trial, I jumped at the chance. My first three pieces arrived within a few days of filling my virtual closet with options from the site. Today, I'm rocking a Michael Michael Kors animal print dress:
Dress: Michael Michael Kors, via Gwynnie Bee
Earrings: Igigi
Tights: Sculptz by Silkies, via Boutique Larrieux
Boots and bangle: Kohl's
I LOVE the chain lace-up detail on the bodice of this dress. It's tremendously comfortable as well. My biggest complaint is that, as poly/spandex knit, it's terribly static-y. At this point, I'm not sure that I love it enough to purchase it (elsewhere; Gwynnie Bee is not currently selling clothing), but if I did, it is currently available at Zappos.
I also can't rave enough about these tights. They're just the right weight, just the right opacity, with just a tiny bit of sheen. Gorgeous. Riding boots would generally not be my first choice with this dress, but my continuing battle with the ruptured tendon in my ankle tends to limit my shoe choices these days. I chose bold gold earrings and a bangle to play up the chain detail a bit more, and this is one of the easiest outfits I've ever put together.
Keep an eye out this week for more on the rest of my first Gwynnie Bee shipment!
