How to style the Self Portrait Flower Garden lace dress

It is safe to say the sneakers I snagged before leaving for New York Fashion Week turned out to be the best purchase yet!  I honestly didn’t even know if I would wear them when I packed them in my bag, but every morning when I was getting ready, they seemed to be the only option for a day of running around the city (and I literally had to run, a few times).  You may remember this post when I was trying to decide which ones to buy.  I had been seeing sneakers styled with everything this season and I love the laid back, cool look it creates.  Not to mention, it is just practical for my lifestyle as a mom.  Anyway, I finally pulled the trigger on these Philippe Models and I couldn’t be more excited about them!

I wore this look to the Self-Portrait presentation (that was really more of a runway show) that I attended with Stacy of Hampden Clothing.  She so kindly dressed me for Self-Portrait and Zimmerman this year and let’s just say these two dresses will be living on the rack in my office so I can stare at them all day!  Self-Portrait has been on my radar for several seasons now and I was so excited to attend this year’s presentation!  I was curious to see how he would reinvent himself after becoming so popular for feminine lace dresses with cutouts (like this one), but he totally surprised me in the best way!  You can see the new spring collection here to see for yourself!
