Not to get too graphic, but we all know there are certain days when a girl would rather cut off her own ear than have anything hugging her lower abdomen. You know, for whatever reason.

I can add this dress to the short list of comfortable garments that aren’t shaped like potato sacks. It does have that elastic band, but it’s nice and high up on the waist. I love that I can make my “bum” days look just as good as my regular days. It’s pretty much my most valuable skill.

Unfortunately I don’t think I can carry this dress into the winter, but for spring through September it works! See below for a side-by-side of the 2 ways I’ve worn it. Wishing you a comfortable Wednesday…

You’ve probably noticed a lack of fancy designer duds on this here lil blog. That’s because law students make approximately negative $1000 a minute. I guess if I wanted to I could take what little money I have, not buy any other clothes for 2 months, and save it up to buy 1 expensive thing. But the chances of me not buying clothes for 2 months are about the same as the chances of Miley Cyrus becoming a nun. Or of me becoming a nun, for that matter.

Still, I’m a regular Vogue reader and Shopbop peruser. I mean, a girl can admire beautiful things from afar, right? Among the beautiful things I’ve admired recently are these zillion-dollar studded Valentino flats. So you can see why I was excited to find the much cheaper shoes I’m wearing today that have a similar look.

I’m not sure if there will ever be a day when I drop $800 on a pair of shoes, but let’s just say that day’s not today. And I’m OK with that.
