Off- Shoulder Or On-Shoulder

The very first thing I check when I like an off-shoulder top or dress is whether I can wear it on shoulder without looking like a bean bag. Yes, you heard me right! I am not a huge fan of the mpst loved summer trend- off-shoulder trend a lot. I find them uncomfortable and impractical to wear for a whole day, unless you are a rock who doesn’t move at all, they are few exceptionally well made dresses like this one that stays on shoulder (reasonably) even after raising or moving your arms. Moreover, the dress looks super cute when worn on shoulder too. It is rightly fitted- not too baggy, or too tight.

The dress has tiny polka dots all over, which was the reason I bought it in the first place. The subtle print makes it more casual and everyday without feeling like you are over dressed. Also, the vintage print is ever green, it will be on demand irrespective of trend or season and the dress is on sale, marked under $50- what would be a better reason to get it.

I kept my accessories vintage as well by going with the vibe of the dress and wore a vintage belt, bandanna like a neck scarf and my favorite vintage Illesteva shades.
