MIXMOSS: Polka Dots


$7.71

Chiffon material. 
Very light and airy.
Puffed sleeves that add a feminine touch.
Love the polka dot detail.
Coral and teal look great together.
Cinched waist that gives shape.
It's SUPER cheap which I thought was really amazing.

I paired this with my coral/red shorts from Old Navy. 
I accessorized it with my AliExpress leaves necklace, gold bangles, and a gold cocktail ring. 
I wanted to keep my jewelry simple since the top is a bit loud.
For my shoes, I just wore a pair of simple gold flats.
I kept my hair up in a bun to keep it out of my face. 

When I saw this on MIXMOSS, I thought that it would be a dress. 
(Since it did say "Dress" in the description.) But when it came in the mail, I found that it was way too short to be worn as a dress.
So I'm just going to be wearing it as a top instead.
Do watch out for the sizing when you are ordering. Make sure that you measure correctly and accurately. :)
