Prints In Bloom

I tend to stay away from tiered dresses...I usually find they create the most unflattering shape, making one bear resemblance to an oddly layered cake...so when I slipped into this dress, I was expecting the worst. To my surprise the dress fit beautifully, with the tiers falling in just the right places.

  15. I usually shy away from tiered dresses as well, so when I saw this one I didn't even give it a second glance. However, I love it on you! Way to make me into a believer! xoxo Marissa

  20. You pull off this dress effortlessly well! Of course, what -don't- you pull off well?

    I love these photos, and the angle creates a really great illusion of added height. I use the same angle for many of my photos!

  22. Another great look !
    You remind me of a barbie doll in this, very feminine and pretty. The kind of girl you look at and say "I want to look just like her !".
    Beautiful Cara ! I always admire your style !

  26. I love all things tiered, ruffled and girly, so this dress appealed to me immediately :) The addition of the belt is such a simple thing, but it pulls the look together just perfectly. And your hair, as always, is stunning... Seeing your photos always makes me seriously tempted to buy a flat iron!
