Back to the topic of Kindred Spirit Sweater dress. This is one of the two piece hubby pick up with me during my birthday (which is in the middle of the summer) and I didn't end up returning. The other one is the acting out skirt.
There are two types of cloth. One is so beautiful and fancy looking that it is like a piece of art. I think Anthro has plenty of those items. However the fanciful detail sometimes took all the attention away from the person who is wearing it. On another word, the cloth is wearing the person. The Kindred sprit sweater dress does the opposite. It is of an almost dull color of green, but the dark color also helps with sliming the figure as well as making it a bit more work appropriate. It shas enough detail such as the gathered collar with the buttons. The neckline is just lovely. Low enough to be flattering, but not so to be revealing. The material is soft, no itchy at all, thanks to the cotton and cashmere blend. The dress drapes very nicely. It does not show lumps and humps like some sweater or jersey dress do. The cut is superb. It is so figure flattering that it really makes you felt you had trim down 10 lbs. I did not find it clingy even though it is unlined. Worth mentioning is that this dress run slightly larger than the usual size. For your reference, I am wearing a XS here. In comparison, I wear XS in the popular camellia dress but a 4 for Botanical Stroll dress.The biggest draw back? The belt. I think it has received enough complain. It is attached, so I am not really sure what to do with it. I felt this dress can use a somewhat more defined belt to dress up a bit more.
And can you guess what my daughter is doing? Don't answer putting her arm up or taking a picture :-P That would be too obvious. A penny for the correct answer.
You look lovely in the Kindred Spirit Dress. I appreciate the little details that make this dress special. It's a dress I never saw in the store but was always curious about. I like that you styled it with the simple cardigan the the black leggings and boots. I don't think I would have done it any differently :) Hmm... I don't know what your daughter is doing... pirouette? Maybe??
ReplyDeleteYes, it is supposed to a pirouette, but last time she did it, she looked like a little squirrel. Apparently it is very hard for her to fully extend her arm. So in this picture, she shows me "look mommy, I can have my arm straight now..." Oh, well, not quite, but I find her extremely adorable when she tries her best.
