Ok, revisiting Easter outfit...

Aurora · Marc Jacobs

Cute outfit. I like the dress, shoes, and the necklace. I'm not sure about any of the cardis though. With the first two I think you might get to the point where there are too many ruffles going on between the dress and the cardi. The third one is nice but the lace looks out of place with the ruffles. I would look for something similar to it but minus the lace I think.

I agree with Aurora. I'd like a pink cropped cardi, but in a plainer style. And I think the necklace would look very good on the outfit.

I like the white cardi with the black lace !

Ok, I just had another idea, whatever shrug I go with, I could totally change the buttons:

Like these on a white shrug

Or these

Ok, that was way fun looking at buttons! Totally going to the craft store this week!!! :)

i like your original plan of the black dress, shoes, and necklace but i would look for a simpler cardi b/c there is a lot going on with the dress and necklace. specifically i'd look for a plain shrunken/fitted cardi in white, pink or even a mint green might look cute. i love the buttons you posted, esp. the first big pink one, but i wouldn't do it with that dress if you are going to wear the necklace. i'd choose the necklace or the decorative buttons, but not both.

although i think a simpler cardi is better, out of the cardis you posted, the pink one is the only one that would work imo as the white one and the black and white one are too busy with the dress (due to the ruffles and esp. if you add the necklace). hope that helps some - i think you guys will all look really cute.

oh and btw i saw that little boy outfit at the children's place and may have to copy you for my two yr old son - it's so cute irl!

what cool buttons!

I like your dress! Too bad you can't skip the shrug - the dress is great

FashionPrincess · Hermes

Pretty sure I've decided to go with this:
ELLE Ruffled Cardigan

I know a lot of you think the white shrug with the ruffle is too busy, but I am just not a plain cardigan/shrug kinda girl, always feel too office-y or old in a plain one, and the more I think about it the more I can see this white shrug working with a lot of my summer dresses. I'll threadstyle after I get it all and put it together :)

Thanks for all of your opinions and suggestions!

Bastet · Kate Spade

Those shoes are fabulous!

twinkle_star · Kenneth Cole

FP would you please do a threadstyle when you wear this? I think it'll look fab irl (I LOVE that necklace)!

KaffeeKlatsch · Marc Jacobs

You are going to look amazing!

Boots · Gucci

Love your shoes, but really love that necklace.

Sibeski · Dooney & Bourke

Super-cute! I like this dress much better than your first option and I love how you all coordinate.

alb · Marc Jacobs
