Bohemian Hippie


Yesterday, my boyfriend and I went walking around the downtown shops in Charlottesville, Virginia. The weather was absolutely gorgeous, which means I definitely had to throw on this stunning dress from Society +.

When I found out that the beautiful YouTuber Alexandra, aka Learning To Be Fearless, had created a line for Society +, I had to jump on it. The items were going quick and I read a post of hers saying they weren't going to restock any items. Fortunately, I snatched up this dress before it sold out.


Now, I will say I was slightly disappointed when I saw that the largest size was an 18/20. Normally, I wear a 20/22 top and bottoms but with some stores, such as Torrid, I can get away with a size 18/20 dress. I figured I'd give it a shot .... because seriously .... how could I pass on this dress?? I will lose weight in order to wear it. That is how much I love it.

Finally, after impatiently waiting for 5 days, it was delivered on Friday.

    The great things about this dress:
  • the colors are gorgeous
  • the pattern is super cute for spring and summer ... and possibly even fall ......
  • the material is lightweight and breathable with a little bit of stretch
  • the length of the dress and sleeves is perfect
The not so great things:
  • it's a big snug around the belly area but loose around the shoulders  granted, I'm pretty heavy around my tummy and much smaller around my bust/shoulder area
  • the material feels slightly clingy







All in all, it's a great dress.

I knew it probably wouldn't fit me as well as I'd like, but the next time I order from Society + I'll make sure to go with a 20/22.
