Summer Cottage Dress Review

    This dress is striking.  It's unusual and eye catching with its beautiful lace and bold colors.  I love it.  It has a great boho feel, but can also be dressy enough for a wedding or possibly a daring wear-to-work look.  Tone it down with deep blue-violet and indigo, or pale pink and beige.  Or glam it up by accessorizing with chunky jewels, cameos or simple brass and leather pieces; this dress can handle it all and look fab doing it.  
    Summer Cottage has a lace shell and lined bodice with two under layers at the skirt for a little flare.  I would say the dress fits true to size, but is meant to be a little loose.  Not knowing this, I ordered one size up, because I envisioned this as a casual dress and wanted a freer fit.  I don't recommend doing this though.  If I had it to do over, I would have gotten my true size and I think it would have been loose enough.  So, if you have a small bust and want something form fitting, consider sizing down.  Overall, I love this unique dress and more styles with it are coming soon!
