“The only real elegance is in the mind; if you have that, the rest naturally comes from it.” Diana Vreeland
As much as I love traveling and as many places as I’ve been, until this week, I had never been to Los Angeles! After realizing this not long ago, we decided to cap off all of our summer adventures with a luxurious stay at the Beverly Hills Hotel for a few days. After all of the hiking and kayaking that we did in Arizona, it was a welcome retreat (More on our adventures in AZ soon!). We celebrated our big 5 year anniversary while there… so you know I had to bring something fabulous to wear that would travel well and be comfortable, yet sexy. I found the perfect dress on MaggyLondon.com – and let me just say that it gave this petite girl CURVES that she never had before! I don’t know how, but this dress worked some serious voodoo magic! It is called the Daphne Sheath dress (see it here!) in color ‘Gold Multi’ and I am wearing a size 0 – and they offer it up to size 16. Did I mention that it shimmers like diamond dust from every angle?! It is lightweight, incredibly comfortable, NEVER wrinkled even when packed tightly in a suitcase for hours on end, and is so soft with plenty of stretch for the perfect fit. I received compliments like crazy all evening long, and I believe that I have found my new lucky LBD for the upcoming party season. Don’t judge me if you see this pretty number on replay! Pictures honestly cannot do it justice.
