Mellow in Melon Modcloth Dress

This past Saturday, I went to a fantastic bridal shower in San Clemente. Funny story: I had no idea it was a two hour drive until I looked at the invitation Saturday morning. GOTTA GET GOING!

So in about an hour, I was able to get girly. My first modcloth purchase came in handy! This super cute piece, titled "Mellow in Melon Dress", was wonderfully comfy for a hot, sunny day in southern Cali. It was only $13.99 - such a bargain! Its one of those dresses that make me look slimmer than I am, so that is always a welcomed bonus.

Partnered with white shoes and a white Melie Bianco purse and I stepped right out a 50s diner! I love themes, always have. Something about the 1950s suburban lifestyle has a safe type of charm, which is probably why I am so drawn to the fashion of that time. Seemed fitting for a girly event, like a bridal shower, don't you think?

What would you wear to a bridal shower?
