I’m embarrassed to admit that I had absolutely NO idea that peonies came BACK in season for a little bit during December. So you can imagine my surprise and burst of excitement when I saw them (sitting pretty, of course!) on a recent shopping trip to Whole Foods. Needless to say, I went home a VERY happy girl. And I may OR may not have made two additional trips….for replacements (don’t judge me!).
How fun is this French Connection sequin dress?! I’m obsessed. I’ve worn it as many ways as possible – literally. I’ve got an outfit post coming up where I wear it as a top AND another where I’m wearing it as a skirt. And here I’m (obviously) wearing it in it’s entirety, as a dress – an awesome dress, that is. When it comes to something festive like this sequined dress, versatility is your friend. Don’t feel like you can only wear (green, especially) sequins during the Holidays or when it’s your birthday. They’re easily dress-up-AND-dress-down-able!
