Beth, I love this dress and how bright and cheerful it is! For day use I would wear the belt around the waist without the cardigan. And for the evening I would add the cardigan and the belt over the cardigan. Hope you have a blast!

Hi Beth! I found a few dresses that would work and would be easy to accessorize with black shoes and accessories (I particularly love the dress that looks like a top and skirt – it’s the comfort of a dress with the chicness of the blouse/skirt combo!) The first dress would look great with a cardigan for the evening, and I would put a wrap with the black dress.
But, then I saw the blue floral dress on Charlotte Russe and fell in love with it. Unless you’re petite and/or have a supershort torso, then this dress will be too short so I put a white eyelet slip underneath from Vintage Hem and a J.Crew cardigan on top. I love white in the summertime, and I love how this look is fun and flirty, and would be crazy comfortable. The shoes may not be comfortable for when you’re having fun out on the town, so stash a pair of cute flats in your bag for that. Have a great night, it sounds like so much fun! Love, Emily

That dress from Charlotte Russe + the Vintage Hem slip = AMAZING!
I’ve been unsure of pairing a slip like those from VH with any dresses or skirts before (I have a hard time getting it through my head that it’s OK if the slip shows at the bottom…these are made for that!), but seeing your combination, I’m all for getting that dress and slip! If only VH had my size…
I just wanted to shout out and say THANK YOU! for the heads up on this phenominal sale.
I bought WAY more than I need, but i have no regrets!
Thanks Again
I (finally) received the belted shift dress from Penny’s and I LOVE it! I only wish there were more days of summer left so I could have more of an opportunity to wear it – I love it! It was on back order for weeks. Thanks again for the tip!
