Friday Wishlist: ECI Print Charmeuse Blouson Dress

/// categories: ,

Joy is killing it with her amazing clothes posts these last few weeks. First she had the blouse I was drooling over last week, and now this amazing dress:


ECI Print Charmeuse Blouson Dress - Nordstrom - $148.00

I love the shape and that watercolor print is to die for.

I have been thinking I might make a dress with a similar shape for the summer, and then I realized dresses + nursing = nightmare. So, I thought I might make a matching skirt + top (80's style) that look like a dress. I am still going for a similar silhouette by making a loose fitting blouse and an elastic waist skirt. We shall see how it turns out. If I dig it, I'll show it to you when I wear it.

Also, I wanted to let you guys know how much I enjoyed reading your comments on dressing to nurse. I am planning to go through the comments and post links to favorite items and tutorials for some of the DIY projects you mentioned. Look for that post next week.

I hope you all have an amazing weekend.

    Oh man, that dress is AMAZING. I wonder how hard it would be to paint a dress like that? I think it would be awesome to kind of do your own watercolor on fabric.

    I saw it in real life on Saturday and didn't like it so much. The colors are MUCH brighter in person than in this picture......

    You can totally nurse while wearing a dress! I had a September baby in AZ when the temps were still over 100 degrees. Dresses were a life saver! Just be sure you can squeeze your shoulder and arm through the neck opening!
