A two part post dedicated to Banana Republic goodness! Spring calls for lightweight, strappy sun dresses in ... cue drum roll ... floral print. Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada said it best:

"Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking."

Flowers are always associated with Spring so it's not exactly news or a trend that disappears. Rather, it's something that signifies the arrival of warmer weather and longer days! For this collaboration with Banana Republic, I was generously gifted this petite friendly floral dress from their latest collection. When I first opened the package I knew this piece would become a staple in my closet - I could wear it alone (as pictured) for hotter months yet it's thin enough to pile on layers for colder months. However, my face automatically cringed when I saw that it was a size 0P. My dress size varies tremendously depending on the retailer so I still had a glimmer of hope that I would be able to squeeze my way into this dress. After I zipped myself up, I was honestly speechless at the fit! The shoulder straps fit just right - they didn't dig into my skin nor did they slip off my shoulders. Additionally, the dress hugged my body enough to accentuate my waist but also gave me room to breathe - I could twirl in this dress all day! Unfortunately, I do not have pictures of the back but you can check it out and purchase the dress on the Banana Republic website - the color of this blue floral dress is "Pop Pink" but it's also offered in white, called "Cocoon."
