I've written about Modcloth.com before, as I just ADORE this online store. I've ordered several cute, Anthropologie-esque items from them, and have been pleased with every purchase. Great prices and decent quality, for the most part. Some people complain about the fit of the garments, but I've honestly never had any issues.
I came across this amazing little number while browsing their site this evening. Of course, like most of their cutest items, this one is currently sold out, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they restock it. I've seen the dress before in another color/pattern, so I think I have a decent shot of bringing this one home someday.
Isn't it just adorable? The product name is called the About the Author Dress and at just under $53, it's a very affordable alternative to the higher priced dresses sold at Anthropologie.
I love the ruffled bodice and fit-and-flare shape of this dress. Looks like it would be super flattering on a wide variety of body types, nipping gently at the waist while gracefully flaring out at the hips to camouflage any trouble areas.
Please, ModCloth, bring this one back in stock so more of us can enjoy it!

I've had my eye on ModCloth for a while, but haven't ordered anything yet. I'm glad to hear the quality is there! I have to try ordering something soon.
ReplyDeleteOOh what a cute little dress. I love the ruffles and the color. The only thing is the tie in the front. Usually I try to keep away from anything that ties up front, but I'm sure it'll look great on you!
ReplyDeleteLady Cardigan -- I won't lie and tell you that the quality is amazing, as the fabrics tend to be thin, but for those prices, I've gotten some really beautiful pieces. To be honest, I've paid double and triple on some Anthro items that fell apart rather quickly.
ReplyDeleteCindi -- Yeah, I know what you mean about the tie in the front, but I can deal with it when the dress is this cute.:) I'll have to check to see if it's removable. I've taken a number off of my Anthropologie dresses.
Gorgeous! Would look amazing on you....and say, did you see this one? Loving it too:

Tracy, I LOVE that black dress! Wow, I need to hurry up and get paid this week!
ReplyDeleteChrissy, thanks, and I know what you mean. Amazing quality is hard to find these days. But decent quality for a reasonable price is welcome.
