When we were in New York a few weeks ago I planned an afternoon in Brooklyn. Yes, it is true that I used to live in Brooklyn and did not have the best time there but that borough of New York City does have a few redeeminging qualities and one of my favorite is Smorgasburg. Smorgasburg is an outdoor foodie market on Saturdays that takes place in the East River State Park, on the far West side of Williamsburg. I have taken a whole host of people to try the international food from more than 70 vendors at Smorgasburg (and even blogged about it back in 2014). This time we enjoyed Mexican street corn, Asian tacos, delicious pulled pork, and fresh watermelon juice while wandering the stalls and taking in the gorgeous view of Manahttan.
Post lunch I convinced my boyfriend to snap few photos – and by a few I mean 180 – of my look and the gorgeous backdrop, it was too pretty to pass up! You have seen this dress a few times, first in Cape Cod a few years ago and then last year at Sparkles and Shoes birthday brunch in London and while not my typical style it is one of my favorites. You all know from one too many Fashion Fridays I love a dress that allows a good twirl and I also love an open back so a dress that combines both is a winner in my book.

I love this dress on you. Perfect backdrop of Midtown NY. I know where this is. I took photos here with my boyfriend back in 2017. Did you visit Domino park too. If I wore flip-flops on those rocks I would have twisted my ankle. I wore a white dress with red heels last Wednesday to a co-workers birthday party. I make it a point to wear a summer white dress a day or two after Labor Day every year.

You are fashion freak, your fashionable dress makes you just awesome.

I can tell how pretty you feel wearing this dress.
Clothes can make me feel so good about myself and when I try something on that makes me smile like you are smiling here, I just have to buy it.
Jessica says
Great geometric print and love the asymmetrical hem line.
Very fashion forward.
