Let me preface this post by saying: I love this dress.
You know why? It’s not too sheer, super comfortable, loose enough to feel roomy but fitted enough to give you a waist. The baby blue color is gorgeous on anyone, and the daisy print (similar dress in same print here,) is very sweet. It sold me on Draper James.
If you haven’t heard, Draper James is Reese Witherspoon’s homage to her Southern roots, with the name of her store derived from her grandparents. She built a brand that reflects the pretty, proper, and polished look of Southern ladies, but with some whimsy thrown in. If you take the time to browse the store website, you’ll likely fall in love with all the gorgeous dresses like I did. Yes, the price point can be high on some pieces, but if you find something classic that you know you’ll wear all the time because it makes you feel good, then it’s worth it.
Here are few of my favorites from the site, including a pair of shorts in the same print as my blue maxi dress:
If you’re planning on attending the Kentucky Derby or just a derby party or event this year, I highly recommend checking out Draper James for your dress!
