Colorful in Charlestown

Dress: Ann Taylor (on sale!) Earrings: Bauble Bar (similar and similar I am loving now too) Bracelets: Loft  Clutch: J.Crew (past season, similar here) Shoes: Ann Taylor (sold out in tan, available in black and off white)

Last week I was lucky enough to be invited to check out Best Dressed during a champagne party at their Navy Yard store. Best Dressed is Boston’s first designer dress rental store. The idea behind Best Dressed is genius-  Boston ladies can now rent their dresses without the fear of their Rent The Runway dress not looking as pictured, all while avoiding buying a new dress for every wedding this season! Owned by sisters, Vicky and Nikoleta, their shop is a gorgeously curated collection of designer dresses for rent and lots of fun accessories to buy.

Sarah and I went to the party together and thought the Navy Yard would make a great backdrop for some photos. It was a gorgeous night for walking along the harbor which worked out because we got a bit confused and ended up walking around in circles to find the store. Blame it on my bad sense of direction, but hey, at least it was a good way to break in my new shoes 😉

I just got these BaubleBar earrings after they were sold out for a bit and let’s just say, I am obsessed! The colors are perfect for summer and they would definitely give even the most basic of outfits the perfect pop. I got so many compliments on my earrings this night which I take as a very good sign at a fashion event! I’m happy tassels are having a moment right now and I’m adding a few more BaubleBar tassel items, like this necklace and these bracelets to my wish list!

 So, have you ever rented a dress for a wedding or other event? How did it turn out?

PS- how cute is this photo of Sarah and I in the “photo booth”?
