I’m normally not a big wearer of dresses though the El Dorado from Shabby Apple was comfy and I actually could wear it and function like a normal person! I’m always on search for holiday shopping ideas and yeah that’s how I found this dress.
It’s soft, comfy and casual enough that high heels aren’t required (a plus for me! unless you want to see me fall on my face!)
The accent work at the hip/waist is slimming and flattering without being obnoxious. (yes sometimes clothes can be obnoxious!)
I, of course, love the color…works well with my tan.
A swath of soft jersey gathers at the hip for a twist on the comfy day dress in El Dorado.
The cayenne colored frock features a v-neckline and elbow length sleeves, with a knee-length circle skirt.
Effortlessly comfortable and chic on its own, or dolled up with a shrunken blazer and boots for cooler weather, this dress will soon be traveling with you wherever your next adventure takes you.
I decided to put on the ole’ boots and take the circle skirt for a whirl!
The skirt part really does swirl waaaay out but hard to get the timing right when you’re using a self timer and not wanting to make yourself dizzy spinning in circles in the hallway!
One thing to note, this dress does run big so you’ll want to order a size smaller than usual.
And, just my type of care…machine wash cold and hang to dry.
Whohoooooo no dry clean, no ironing…wash and hang to dry! works for me any day of the week.
One other thing, the site says the Dress For Girls hits below the knees…
which it did on me so the model in the pic must be taller than normal because it shows it above her knees…just an FYI.

That dress looks absolutely gorgeous on you. The color, the cut, the accent, the boots with it – fabulous. I hope you get a chance to go somewhere fun in that outfit, ’cause you are the bomb!
I almost bought this dress in the green from SA a few weeks ago! I wasn’t sure how it would look on a non-model though. You rock this though, and I’m glad to see it’s even cuter than I imagined.
I also love the Phi Betta Kappa from Shabby Apple.
