Successful shopping trip!?

Raise your hand if you like shopping...
Raise your hand if when you finally have money when you shop you can't find anything!
Lucky for me I found this dress last-minute on one of those disappointing shopping trips. 

I bought it at Forever 21 a couple weeks ago for $25. I would have worn it earlier but due to me being lazy and not ironing it for two weeks this is the first time I've worn it. Forever 21 is always changing their stock so you can't go in there twice and see the same thing, I knew when I saw this dress I had to have it because I knew I wouldn't see it again.
I'm obsessed with collars. If there's a collar on a shirt there's a 89% chance that I'll buy it. So when this dress had a collar on it I was all over it like flies on dog poop. I also liked the shape/style of it. I love the 40's/50's/60's style dresses so anytime I see one in the store I must try it on. I have a couple floral print 50's style dresses that are my go-to dresses. If I need to be casual I can wear them, but with the right shoes and accessories I can easily turn it into formal wear. And as with my floral dresses this dress can be formal/causal as well. Today I'm wearing it to a job interview hoping I look presentable and hire-able. I also paired it with a simple belt to extenuate my waist, otherwise the dress kinda hangs funny and gives me no shape whatsoever.
Peach is such a nice color that's trending this season, I was never into pinks or peaches but I see now that the color is all over and there's no way of avoiding it. Maybe my eyes have seen it so much they're just used to it now, either way this color screams "happy" and "spring". I love it.
You can't see in the picture but I have on gladiator sandals that go with the whole "summer has finally arrived" look and "can you see tan lines from when I wear my tennis shoes in the sun!?" look.
What's your favorite summer trend?
Thanks for reading xx have a lovely day!
