Just like velvet, the bell sleeve is a huge trend right now. Whether you get them on a dress or blouse, long or 3/4 sleeve, loud or minimal…you can rock it!
I feel like I saw the bell sleeve last year too but apparently brands are pushing for it this season more than ever. Thanks runway! As always, you can rely on me to provide crazy affordable options for you…this dress…$20.
I can’t help that Forever 21 just does great things for us.
I’m very picky about taupe so I made sure to shop a little extra for the perfect OTK boots. Although the dress is cheap, I advise to invest in good OTK boots because I assure you, they will be worth the splurge. You will wear them pretty frequently in the months to come. However, Target does have a pair right now for $50 so maybe go try those.
The dress says brown online but its more of a rust color in my opinion.
Shop away! xo

Right?! The sleeves just add a fun touch to a simple top or dress.

Okay I’m seriously copying this outfit asap! I’m pale with dark hair too and I never wear red because somehow it does NOTHING for me, but this rust color is gorgeous!

I’m sure you can rock it!! Give it another try, ya never know. And yes, cheers to the perfect OTK boot! xo

I forgot to add to my first comment that I totally agree with investing/splurging a little on really good OTK boots because you’ll end up wearing them WAY more than you think once you find the perfect pair!
