My latest Modcloth dress is actually one of the "Be The Buyer" pieces on their site. For those who don't know: Modcloth has a system where it offers a number of clothes/accessories that viewers can vote on. If there is an outpouring of love for the item, Modcloth will produce and sell it. You can even get an e-mail update if it becomes available, making it possible for you to be one of the first buyers. Essentially, the site is allowing its shoppers to pick the inventory. If it sounds like something you're interested in, visit the Modcloth site and choose what you'd like Modcloth to sell.
So, this BB Dakota dress was voted into the Modcloth inventory by...well, you and me. I was attracted to the bright color (perfect for spring) and the little rosebuds along the hem; I'm a sucker for sweet details, no? Overall, its a very preppy and clean dress and I'm quite pleased with the fabric weight and quality.

I've read about "be the buyer" before, but never got to much attention to it! too bad, because the dress is really lovely, especially the sweet hem detail.

The blue's awesome on you!
so cute. I really love the color of the dress. I want those shoes.
I love that modcloth has this feature, I wish more sites would do the same :)
I love this bright blue dress, It looks adorable on you. The shoes make it fancy too, the whole look is great. I love your photo shoots because you always capture the scene around you as well, and it complements you.
Thank you for coming by my infant blog! It means a lot that people take the time to stop by and read my ramblings and I was wondering if you would like to trade links?
I hope that you are having a wonderful day!
That dress is gorgeous--the colour, full short skirt, and rosette detailing on the hem--and you wear it so very well. I'll definitely be checking out Modcloth's Be The Buyer pieces.

What a lovely dress and your feather fascinator is just wonderful!
your outfits always pop against the background. top notch!
this dress is sooo beautiful! the colour, the shape, the details, just perfect! love how you styled it!
your GIFs get me every time!
That is a gorgeous color blue and I love those seychelles!
gosh, this is so beautiful! i love the way you wear these gorgeous dresses for day with a little sweater thrown over them. you have no idea how inspiring this is for me to pull those fancy dresses out from my closet and trot around in them.
Love your dress and photos! You live in such a beautiful place all your photos are always so romantic. I bought a headband similar to yours but in peacock feathers for my Halloween costume last year. I was so excited when I found it and have gotten so much wear: ) I have a picture on our blog in my costume if you want to see, under Peacock.

R, your hair has gotten really long! I love if when you wear it down like that and show us the brilliance that is your tresses.
This dress works perfectly with your hair colour and complexion.
The thing about the colour is that you could take it out of your closet and wear it all year round. And being that it's YOU wearing it, we know how versatile it will end up being!
I can't wait for this dreariness in MI to end. Sadly, we have no spring. We catapult from Not Really Quite Winter straight into blistering summer heat. It makes me sad I live here.
Okay you're basically my favorite ever, just so you know.
I forgot to mention that your posts on Hawaii over break made me wish that we could save for Honolulu faster, but I don't think I ever told you that I'm moving there in two years if all goes according to plan.
(i.e., that my husband and I don't have children accidentally before our timeline.)
cute hairband!
Love the dress - the colour is so pretty!
xXx
That detail is to die for...the dress looks lovely on you.
i love the bold blue color of this dress! fabulous!
that blue dress is adorable and so stylish
and it's defenetley perfect for you.
i mean blue must be your color^^
this is gorgeous! and your hair looks awesome.
I've been voting in the be the buyer feature on modcloth. I love it. I don't know if I have been keeping track of what I have voted for actually making it to the site.
I love the hair piece. You are absolutely gorgeous!
What a gorgeous hair piece...It's beautiful and goes so well with your other pieces!
such an adorable head piece. i love your site!
I love that dress - I voted for it too! It's so pretty, and the colour looks lovely on you!
That color reminds me of the dress Meg wears to Sally Moffett's party in Little Women... so beautiful. The details are equally great. Go Modcloth! This I might have to order that puppy!
I really want a feather thing like that to wear to a formal coming up.
You look so cute! Lovely in blue.
I love the color on your dress and the details on the bottom of it, its beautiful!

Again, I find myself wishing Modcloth's shipping charge to the UK wasn't quite so expensive... or really, I just wish I lived in America!
Your hair is so wonderful. Like fairytale hair!
I love how bright and pretty the blue is against the comparatively bleak background. And the feather fascinator! it's so cute.
You model the dress well! I love that shade of blue, it's my absolute favorite color ever and I have to consciously stay away from it or that's all my wardrobe would consist of. The details are so pretty!
LOVE the dress, especially the gorgeous detailing on the hem...love the gif too! :)
xx
You're such a dream!

I love the contrast of the blue and bunt earthy colours of your accessories and the background
ooh! very pretty. the flower detail is lovely, and the fascinator is darling :)
It looks so gorgeous, especially with the colours you paired it with.
I so love your "animated" pictures

Longtime follower, firsttime commenter: this dress and the way you wear it are gorgeous! Your style is so inspiring to me; even though my body shape is about as far from yours as possible, reading your thoughts on style and seeing the way you implement it has had a big effect on my own wardrobe and style.

hi! I just read your "stoked" entry on chictopia and thought i'd leave my comment here instead. I'm definitely going to the chictopia10 and am so excited to meet all of these wonderful ladies (you included) in person! So yeah, i'll make sure to say hi!
I love the blue on you!
great idea modcloth, off to check it out thanks. I subscribe to their new product feed in google reader, it's so tempting!
oh what a cute little blue dress!!
That blue looks so amazing on you! Modcloth really has a great concept :)
I appreciate clothing companies that embrace an egalitarian attitude about their product lines -- the people have spoken! The detailing on the dress is precious.
quick question: your photos are always so amazing, does someone else take them of you or do you use a tripod? and if you use a tripod which one? i am at a loss of which one to buy!
