mini bubble dress Monti Strapless Hem White 85% polyester Hot Pink Bubble Hem Sleeveless

(Household Companion, 1909) Afternoon Gown For afternoons are silks, lace gowns, also lace and muslin or lace and batiste

The dress emphasizes the figure and gives elegance in every movement

Now is a great time to set a goal to switch it up and stand out this summer

There was also a dearth of bras

I probably would have chosen sandals (flip flops!) if I didnt add the jacket, or if my pants were baggier but the closed toe/open back on the suede shoe catches the weight of the cropped coat without adding too much on either ends

And, of course, at-home parties can just as easily warrant a fun design, whether you are taking on the role of host (which undoubtedly requires a remarkable look!) or attending a soiree with a cocktail dress code
