Splurge: Amanda Wakeley Printed Silk Georgette Dress

Personally, I don't have much use for floor-length silk dresses. Now, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't exactly turn up my nose at a lifestyle that required me to occasionally slip into an extravagant dress and sip champagne surrounded by similarly well-dressed friends. But, that's not really the lifestyle I have going on at this juncture in my life. So, you can see why I find this new dress a true splurge.

The Amanda Wakeley Printed Silk Georgette Maxi Dress is perfect for a local museum exhibit opening or fundraiser. If you are feeling particularly splurge-y, it would just be a fabulous dress-in-waiting to keep on hand for your next big occasion. And, I suppose if you are in the money way, it wouldn't make a half bad dress for sipping fruity cocktails beachside during your next vacation. It's crafted from 100% silk with a semi-sheer printed silk georgette layered over a mustard-colored silk slip. The mustard colored belt is a perfect pop of pure color. So, so pretty.
