Percy Gingham Tunic Shirt Dress

Anyone else tired of seeing me wear this dress so much? Well you better get used to it because it is my favorite dress of the summer! What is not to love about a flowy gingham dress? 

 Anthropologie: Percy Tunic [comes in 4 other colors & prints!] / Brown Belt: Nordstrom / Converse: All-Star Sneakers / Le Specs: Runway Sunglasses / Cuyana: Purse [old] / Michael Kors:  Leather Watch / BareMinerals: Red Lipstick / David Yurman: Pearl Earrings

If you remember, this was my look when visiting One World Trade a few weekends ago. I wanted a no-fuss, easy and breezy kind of dress. Something perfect for the summer heat but cute enough to romp around in all day.

I can't tell you how many compliments I got on this dress when I was downtown! It made ya girl feel extra special. All clothes should make you feel this good!

When I was finding it online for you all, I realized the "dress" I came to know and love is actually a tunic? Who knew. I can definitely see it as a tunic on some, but for me it was perfect! I'm 5' 6" and I bought a medium and belted it (as you can see above) and was good to go. The wind kicked it up while walking down to the subway and I wish I could say that was the only time it ever happened.

I'm not kidding when I say it was breezy! I tried to size down since it was a bit flowy (now I know why) around the waist, but the small was a little too short for my taste and was tight around my chest. Medium worked better.

I originally was going to pair the dress with my Jack Rogers but I decided for a little more support during the day so I went with the ever-popular All Stars. I think whatever shoe I would have worn that day would have had my feet barking but these sure did ease the pain!
