Oh, this dress....it takes me back...
My mother bought it for me right before I left to go study fashion design in Buenos Aires. That was back in 2007, when Forever 21 finally changed their look and became the amazing store where I go in and have to buy at least 2 dresses. I found this dress--which would later become an iconic dress for me--an evident Missoni rip off from F21 spring/summer collection. I was instantly drawn to it by its amazing colors which I often associate with an Argentine candy label (Rhodesia), and remember not being sure if it was a shirt or a dress. Since I love mini dresses, obviously that's how I sported it around the world with me on an incredible number of trips, through an embarrassing amount of boyfriends, and overall its just been my companion and overall "feel good" dress for the past 5 years. Below are just a few of the images I found of me in the dress, doing random things, in random places.
Awesome dress, I just wanted to say...thank you! : )
