So I am still heading back to Texas outfits here. This was what I decided to wear the day of the conference. It was an easy choice because this dress is awesome. Have you heard of 81 Poppies before? If not you should definitely check out their site and see if there is a store location near you. This dress has quickly become one of my favorites. The colors are so pretty and I love the little details (like the hemline!). I decided to wear a white blouse from Forever 21 under it. I really liked how the ruffle sleeves popped thru under the dress. It dressed it up just a little for conference day. The dress has a cute drawstring waist but I opted for a black belt to tie my black heels in. It was the perfect outfit for the perfect day.
Dress: c/o 81 Poppies
Ruffle Sleeve Blouse: Forever 21
Belt: Target
Heart Necklace: gift from friend
JC Splendid Heels: Lulu’s

This is not meant to be a snarky comment, but do you ever worry about modesty? Most of the dresses you wear are cute, but so so short! I’d be so afraid of flashing everyone every time I bent down or sat down.

Those shoes are great! I love that the black/brown combo and how chunky they are—it’s a great contrast to the dress! I’m also super jealous of that weather…

This was such a clever idea to pair the blouse under the dress, I wouldn’t have thought to do that! Great look Jen!

I love that dress! It is so colorful and the hemline is wonderful. I wish there was an 81 poppies near me!

I agree, do you end up wearing shorts under your dresses? They are so short!

Love these shoes! I always see shoes like this and really want a pair, but I have to ask – how realistically comfortable are they to walk in?

Jen is tall so it is a must for her to know how to wear short dresses in a lady like manner. I’ve figured it out over the years as well, it’s not that hard as long as you pay attention to yourself!

as a fellow tall lady, you learn to do the semi-kneel bend. never from the waist. always in the knee. never sacrifice a cute dress for a less than ideal hemline. especially when the hemline is as awesome as this one is! love the tiers!

Ooh, that’s the dress I’ve been eyeing since your conference overview. It looks so great on you. Seems like that brand has a lot of dresses I like, wish I could get my hands on them over here too. You have the longest legs btw, am totally jealous
