Red Roses Long Dress + Red Lips

Do you believe in love at first sight?  I do.  When you know you know . . .

And when I saw this long floral dress, I knew instantly I HAD to have it.  I didn't have any occasion in mind to wear this beauty to.  But really is that even necessary?  No worries, we'll find something to wear it to.  If not, don't be surprised if you find me glamorously walking my dog or running to the grocery store in this dress.  Basically, I'll take any opportunity to wear it.  Kroger Plus and all.

The red on black floral print is so bold and amazing.  And as you know, red is my absolute favorite color and it's one of the hottest colors this season (see how I wore more red here).  I will say that florals (or any print) typically aren't my jam but I'm really starting to love them, especially in the Fall (see my other Fall floral look here).

Let's just all agree that maxi dresses make almost any body type looking banging!  Especially us pear-shaped girls.  As you can see, this dress is a little boob-a-icous.  So if cleavage isn't your thang, try a pretty lacy bralette underneath (here & here).  I threw on a leather moto jacket for a more Fall look (plus, I'm pretty much cold everywhere I go) a deep drop necklace and my favorite shade of Stilla matte red lipstick in Fiery.
