Somehow in the summer months I managed to accumulate about six (gorgeous) formal floor length gowns. Where I am going in said gowns was beyond me but damnit if I needed to wear a gown to the bodega on the corner to get some pop tarts, so be it. On this particular fall day, I decided to galavant to the park wearing a whimsical ball gown by Betsy Johnson.
I love how much fun Betsy Johnson incorporates into her pieces and this dress is no exception. The strapless sweetheart neckline and boning in the corset gives beautiful structure to the dress while the tiny bows and not so tiny lace ruffles provide a bold yet feminine and romantic feel.
Since I was heading to the park, I ditched my heels and threw on a pair of chunky Steve Madden Metallic Silver Sneakers. This was a departure for me since I am typically a stilettos by any means necessary kinda girl. However, the sneakers added additional character to the already animated gown and pulled the entire look together.
The accessories? Simple and elegant. A minimal smile necklace from Tiffany & Co. along with black and gold Kate Spade stud earrings did the trick.
Well styled, if I do day so myself.
