From a dress that looks like a piece of art, to an LWD, I’m obsessed with easy and unique one-pieces. But a drop waist dress is one of those under appreciated waistlines that is actually really flattering! A drop waist is super forgiving and doesn’t constrict your body of movement. It can also help elongate the upper half of your body! Drop waist is also a super feminine silhouette as it creates more shape in the lower half of your body.
I’ve been wearing a lot of black and white, and over all neutral colors recently- so this gorgeous dress is right up my alley. It’s black, white and grey color scheme almost looks like marble. And a girl can always use a muted blue printed dress right? But as usual, it’s all in the details and I’m utterly obsessed with the bandeau detail on the side. Though I love the deep arm holes, I tend to shy away from that much skin- so the bandeau is the perfect middle ground to pulling off the trend!
I’m currently writing to you guys as I’m waiting for my flight back to LA .. Greece was completely amazing and so beautiful! Even though I missed my Chloe bear like crazy, I had so much fun with my best girl friends! Not going to lie, it’s been pretty hard to get everyone together especially since we all have our own families now. But I cherish every single moment that I get to spend with them .. and if you guys missed our adventures on snapchat (@chrisellelim), be sure to check out my instagram! Santorini is such a beautiful and magical place. I’m so sad to be leaving this paradise but I’m ready to come back to LA!
Hope you guys have an awesome weekend! I know I will .. because I’ll be spending it all with Chloe!

Dear Chriselle,
A woman with style is wearing this dress! It is so beautiful how you managed to turn this summer outfit to something extraordinary and special. With your fabulous pictures and your writing and expression you managed to give this post the true “Chriselle vibe”.
I have recently also opened a professional online platform where one can find inspiration and wander away from the main path for a moment. I would be honoured if you visit my site http://www.chochmes.com.
I wish you all the best with Chloe and with your further projects.
X Silvie

Yeah drop waist does look absolutely feminine. But it does put quite a bit of focus on the legs. Maybe share how you would style a drop waist piece with a little Chriselle factor? 🙂 🙂 🙂

I agree that the drop-waist is definitely overlooked, but it works so well on you, especially since you’re tall 🙂 Very casual chic!
Glad to hear that you had a wonderful time in Santorini <3 Can't wait to visit soon too!

I don’t think this dress would suit my figure (at least I wouldn’t like it on me) but you wear it so well and I adore the print !!! I followed your Greece adventures through snapchat and instagram and it really looks like a gorgeous place !

thanks Charlie! and you should give it a try! you might be surprised 🙂 xx Chriselle
The dress is indeed simple, feminine and beautiful. The pattern and style of the dress makes it more stand out than usual. Funny, I also have one of my Persian Himalayan Cat that I also call Chloé bear, because it is so fluffy and chunky. 🙂
