Crushing on Coral

This season I am into bold colors. Although my weekday wear often assumes more muted tones, I have made a conscious effort this spring to buy practical yet colorful statement pieces.

One of my favorite boutiques in Huntington, New York, Vine & Roses, was a natural first stop for my latest obsession. I have purchased plenty of pieces from them in the past, and what I love most is how unique their selection is. I always know that whatever I end up buying is one-of-a-kind, and I’m not likely to wear it somewhere and run into someone with the same outfit.

This trip was no exception. The first dress I spotted was exactly what my heart desired – a light coral, cocktail length dress, with beautiful embroidery that is perfect for a summer party, yet sophisticated enough to double as office attire.
