- I wear ugly things
Admittedly today's outfit is a bit over the top, especially for a day at work. I'm wearing what I call my "ugly" dress because the colors in it don't really go together at all and the first time I wore it my friend told me it was ugly and only I could pull of something that bad...thanks, I guess. But I think its cute, I love the boat and seagull print and I paired it with two crinnies, a cropped cardi and gloves. The belt I bought a while ago but haven't been able to find anything that matches...well I guess I didn't remember this dress because they match almost perfectly! And its kind of ugly too. I love to wear ugly things :)Dress:American Living (JCPenny)

I don't think your dress is ugly at all, it's unique and fun! Novelty prints are the best and I have a boat dress my self (although it's from the '70s and not as full skirted as yours).
The accessories work well too-- love the seagull brooch and the rope texture of your belt.
Was the dress really from JCPenney's? Or am I misreading?
I think that's an amazing dress!!! Sailboats=pretty and you make it even prettier!
i am totally crazy about this dress! so jealous! <3
One of my favorite things to do in fashion is to make people say "only you could pull that off." One's ugly is another's fabulous, and you totally make all these colors work. HOT MAMA.
Sooooo not ugly. That outfit actually made me shriek with joy.
i am known for liking 'ugly' things, and get the "only you can pull that off" comment a lot! i think your dress is spectacular, i love me a good novelty print.
