we went to a rehearsal dinner on friday night
and this was one of those times where i had an enTIREly different outfit planned
but it ended up not looking right when i put it on 20 mins before we had to go.
hate it when that happens!
i ended up reaching for a tried and true favorite that i knew would work
and added some neutral accessories and a simple hairstyle.
(also had to grab some doubled sided tape for that neckline!)
sometimes it’s nice to have a few “plan b’s” standing by in your closet, you know?
dress – francesca’s
necklace & belt – j. crew
rings & bracelet – nana’s
booties – fergie, endless.com

sexy mama! You look GORG! xoxo
That’s happened to me quite a bit! The idea is better than the execution. Sigh.. c’est la vie.
That dress is amazing! From a distance it definitely dones’t look crochet.

Yes, plan B is always a good choice! And in your case it worked PERFECTLY!! you look amazing, the dress, the shoes and that necklace!!!!
where do you find your double sided tape?
That dress is so great! I love the colors! Absolutely perfect for a summer wedding event!
Very chic, I love how the booties make your legs look a million miles long. I should wear them just for pictures….haha!

Love your Plan B – I was wondering how you kept that neckline in check until I read the commentary … :)
That dress is ah-maazing. I feel a little hypnotized by the close up of the pattern!
This dress looks so fab! And you look fab in it, Jessie! :)
I so have that dress (got it at Standard Style a few years ago), but it doesn’t look nearly that adorable on me! Good work.
oh this dress is just so pretty!!
I LOVE that necklace.
hahaha! that happens to me the whole time – however it’s me running out – running late as usual and my husband stopping me and saying ‘honey, you can do better than that!” and so i have to go and change… argh!!! know your feeling there!
You look fantastic! I love the colors of the dress…so striking on you :)
So beautiful! I don’t know what your first look was but I’m glad you decided on this one :)
I love your hair in these photos. Where exactly does the double-sided tape go?
Perfect summer evening outfit! I just discovered Francesca’s myself…
love this rainbow like dress! you look fantastic!
thank you so much, everyone! i thought it’d be a fun summery option with all the bright colors! :)
@anon – i have a variety of kinds in my stylists kit, but i believe for this dress, i used good ol’ scotch double sided masking tape (this kind is heavier-duty than i needed, and it kind of hurt to take off, though!)
@terri – the double sided tape is used to hold “the girls” up and in! the general public can thank me anytime! ;)
