Outfit Details: Ted Baker Aquai Carousel Stripe Skater Dress (Olive) (also love this one) | Stuart Weitzman Heels | YSL Wallet on Chain (less expensive version here) | Nadri Necklace | Celine Sunglasses (similar here) | Tarte Lipstick (Sass)
I first learned about Ted Baker clothing through a Facebook group I am in. Someone posted a picture of one of his dresses, and I was struck right away by the beauty and sophistication of his dress. After that I checked out his website, I became impressed with all of the beautiful dresses (mostly florals) on his site. Ted Baker is a relatively new company, as it started out as a shirt specialist in Glasgow, London in 1987. It was his focus on quality and attention to detail that attracted me to the brand. The company became successful rather quickly and has since expanded to sell women’s clothing, accessories, fragrance, and footwear (I have previously posted about a pair of Ted Baker heels that I own). When I saw this Aquai Carousel Stripe Skater Dresss, the soft colors and the stripe detail caught my eye. Of course, it was an A-line dress that was perfect for my petite frame! I got the size 1 (corresponding to a US size 4) and absolutely no alterations were needed. The dress is of very high quality and does not require any ironing. It was a perfect dress for a day in the office, or for a nice luncheon or even a weekend evening. It is absolutely one of my favorite dresses in my closet. I’ve been keeping my eye on this one as well, though with the colder temperatures approaching I have decided to hold off on that one, at least for now. Below I have linked to a few other Ted Baker dresses that I like as well.
Since I wore this to work, I paired this with my practical but stylish Stuart Weitzman platform heels (the most comfortable heels I own!). Although I didn’t take it to work, for these pictures I used my YSL wallet on chain. I paired it with my Nadri necklace and my favorite lipstick, Tarte Sass.
