After an indulgent weekend, I’m all about donning a dress that forgives.

best nyc boutiques, shops, stores

More specifically, I’m talking about a no-fail fashion solution that hides your sins.

On any given day, that usually means I went all-in on a carb-loaded brunch, but this was after a particularly late night out. Or “early” would be a more appropriate term to use here, but I digress…

The Ellen” dress is a recent sale find from my go-to boutique in the West Village, Otte. I’ve worn it a number of ways — belted and with a knotted t-shirt over top — but today (given the aforementioned indulgence) there was no question; the answer was free-flowing.

  1. I really love this dress! I’m also pretty sure it is named after me due to the fact I have been overindulging like it’s my job.

  2. LOVE this dress!!! So glad you bought one, after Pepperologie I’ve been lusting over it but other things keep draining my bank account (ahem, Zara sale). It looks fantastic on you!!

  3. Amazing dress! I love the cutout in the back. Def could have used something similar this morning as I dressed for work. I may have eaten my weight in Twizzlers, M&M’s, and wine this weekend. Detox.
    I wish I looked half as good, after my weekend of food debauchery. Get it girl!
