{GIVEAWAY!} Shabby Apple Dress!

Happy Holidays, friends! It’s not to early to say that, right?Today I’m excited to share a *perfect* holiday gift with you. In fact, it just might be the second most perfect gift ever. Being that the absolute most perfect gift would be to whisk you away on a cruise or to some tropical all-inclusive resort to get away from whatever you most want to get away from (work? husband? the dog? I won’t judge) and I unfortunately can’t give you that, I have the next best thing:

The dress you’ll look hot in while you’re there!

If you’re lucky enough to be going somewhere warm and sunny to escape the winter blahs, you know you need this in your suitcase. And if not? Well, I’m sure you’ll soon find an occasion to shimmy into this gorgeous sheath. It’s rich jewel-tone hue, floral-like ruffles and perfectly placed pleats will take you just about anywhere you need to go. Spring wedding? Anniversary dinner? Grocery shopping? You’ll be all set.
