Blue Heartloom Dress

This dress is not new to Teach Me Style, however, I had such positive feedback from the Instagram I posted of me wearing it in Mexico, I thought I would share it again!

I originally posted this dress as an OOTN inspo post for New Years eve and styled it with a duster jacket and some black suede booties to help combat the subzero temperatures… it was SO cold on New Years that I never did end up wearing this dress 🙁 So I decided it would be perfect for the wedding in Mexico!  For the wedding,  I obviously left my shoulders bare as the temperature was slightly warmer (about 60 degrees to be exact, lol).

This cocktail dress is absolutely perfect for weddings!   It’s light, under $100, the color is absolutely stunning, and it doesn’t need to be pressed or ironed (by far the best part!) I simply took it out of my suitcase and hung it in the closet and it was good to go- perfect for this destination wedding!!

I wanted to keep the jewlery quite simple as I love the simplicity of the dress and I wanted to keep with that theme.  I decide to go with black and gold palette and I am quite happy with how it turned out. Because I was travelling, I took only my favourite pieces of jewlery (taking to much is an easy way to add unnecessary weight to your luggage). This Stella & Dot necklace, Prada sunnies, and my Brooklyn Designs cuff were the perfect finishing touch to this outfit!

 

Ps. How gorgeous is the back on this dress?! Love, love, love!!!
