Shabby Apple Dress Giveaway: La Noche Negra - CLOSED


"A return to what dresses were always meant to be — a one-piece outfit. No need to add anything...no tank tops, no cardigans, nothing (except accessories, of course!)."

I love dresses. Next to jeans, they are probably the most common article of clothing in my closet.
45 Words Per Minute Dress

They make me feel...like a woman. 
They're easy to style. 
There's no hassle putting one on. 
They can go from day to night. 
They're comfortable.

Dresses are a necessity. I recommend you never leave home without attempting to at least try one on!

My discovery of Shabby Apple was first made after reading a post on Cutie Booty Cakes. Looking back, I realize the dress that Renee's dress in her photo is the same dress that now comes in kid sizes. How cute is that? It's the perfect opportunity to dress alike for a mother-daughter outing.

Shabby Apple has an endless amount women's dresses and little girls dresses at http://www.shabbyapple.com/. But there is so much more on the site as well. They also carry skirts, jewelry & accessories, swim, fitness, wedding, arts & crafts, and kids. How is that for meeting your needs?

About Shabby Apple:

Shabby Apple welcomes you to great dresses that make dressing simple.

After years of not being able to find stylish dresses that covered enough skin to make you really feel comfortable (without wearing a tank top, cardigan or long slip), owners Emily and CK decided to do something about it.

They visited trade shows, marketplaces and designer studios only to discover the problem was not that department stores weren't buying the right dresses, but that designers weren't designing them.

Shabby Apple is proud to offer you fantastic dresses that allow you to look fabulous, without having to compromise anything else.

A return to what dresses were always meant to be — a one-piece outfit. No need to add anything...no tank tops, no cardigans, nothing (except accessories, of course!).

Shabby Apple also focuses on helping women worldwide. Through our charitable work with women throughout Asia and Africa, we are able to convert dress sales into lifestyle changes for women and children.

I've spent hours browsing the site and drooling over all the pieces. My favorite section is VINTAGE INSPIRED. I can blame that on my love for thrift-store shopping. I couldn't just stop there. There were a lot of "ooh ahh" moments. Here are just a couple of my favorite items:


Tivoli Earrings, carved feather earrings with brown teardrop bead, $18
Rosso, red maxi dress, $78









 
LA NOCHE NEGRA, $78 
Side zipper.
Puff sleeves.
Gold buttons
Military-inspired
Cotton Poplin with 2% spandex.
Machine wash cold, delicate cycle. Line dry.
