Another amazing fit for our Brand Image Upgrade with Anne

Nothing is more flattering than a pin tuck pleated dress with a simple all over pattern!  The small pattern floral can be worn layered with a long sleeve tee or a beautiful copper blouse shown. Another option is a navy cotton satin blazer.  Regardless, buy dresses that can be layered and worn in different ways to maximize it’s uses.  Check out the jewelry that Anne created by using the periwinkle pearls with beautiful forest green chunky beads.  Absolutely a game changer for this dress.  

Special thanks to and
