I love Monet paintings. The gorgeous watercolors in soft colors are so pretty and feminine. That’s why I couldn’t help myself when I saw this watercolor print dress at Ann Taylor. Thankfully, I got it for 40% off.
I wore this dress to an event last night benefiting Recipe for Success held at a local boutique, TOOTSIES, in West Ave. The event featured a fashion show with mother-daughter duos walking the runway in the latest spring fashions and CultureMap’s Clifford Pugh emceed.
Dress- Ann Taylor
Bag- Kate Spade
Shoes- Jessica Simpson
Blazer- Nordstrom
Here are some of my favorite shots from the fashion show (the show included professional models too, but my favorite were the moms and daughters, it was so sweet!)
A few of my awesome friends and fellow bloggers were there—including Annina, Bethany, Monica and Shasie.

Sorry, I don't like the dress at all… It looks like you're going to a brunch rather than a fashion show, and the shoes…..

I love your pretty dress. It's a good mix between professional and flirty. And in regards to the comment above (and I'm never ever one to publicly disagree), there is definitely nothing wrong with the shoes. They are classic nude pumps! 'nuf said.

I never care when people don't like my shoes…but when they are classic pumps it always surprises me. It makes me wonder what kind of shoes the person wears or sees other people wearing that a classic pump would seem ugly to them. It's a real head-scratcher.

I like that you're incorporating some color into your wardrobe now! Pretty dress, the colors & pattern are very eye-catching.

While I adore this dress, I couldn't not comment: Money did not paint watercolors. He was an oil painter, which is much different, lol. You look great though!
Allison says
You look beautiful. Very classy and feminine.

I am so glad you shared pics of the fashion show, I too like the ones with the mother-daughter duos.

I actually particularly like those shoes! I snagged a similar pair last week and I'm so happy to have them. Love the dress too – you look superduper tall in it! 🙂 Eve

Love the outfit! But may I suggest throwing on some lipstick? Your lips always appear very washed out in your photos.
