The Esme Dress

I know! Two Gal Meets Glam dresses in one week! Honestly? I can’t get enough. It’s only a matter of time before my entire closet is GMG, and I’m totally okay with it. I keep saying this, but every dress seems to be better than the last. (And the bar was already set pretty high from the start.)

I got a sneak peek at this dress when I was down in Charleston and immediately put it on my “wish list.” Red is one of my favorite colors to wear– I think it looks good with my dark hair and fair skin.

Everything about this dress spoke to me, even though it’s not something I feel like I’d naturally gravitate towards. It fits like a dream though and every detail is simply perfection from the print to the pockets.

The dress actually dresses down pretty easily. Even though the print looks a little dressier, I wore it with a denim jacket and slides and it looked just as cute. These espadrilles almost seem made for the dress too. If you need a pair, I highly recommend these. I’ve worn them for years and they look just as good as the day I bought them. I do recommend sizing down a 1/2 size because they stretch out a tiny bit as you break them in. I usually wear a 7 and got these in a 6.5.

I love that shade of red lipstick! What kind is it? I struggle to find one that doesn’t look too orange-y or pink on me!

It’s definitely Nars, but I can’t remember the exact shade. If you send me an email, I can look it up when I get home!

This dress looks like it was made perfectly for you! I love the pattern and colors of it. I’ve had a few GMG dresses on my wish list that I plan to purchase soon!

SUCH a beautiful dress! She is just killing it. I love everything about this dress. It seems like you can wear it to a variety of events.
Also loved seeing you in something besides navy! I get stuck on navy myself, so this was inspiring!

I love all of the GMG dresses you’ve been sharing! So cool to see how supportive you are of a good friend, and for good reason since they are gorgeous and clearly thoughtfully designed.

Any chance of a discount code for one or more of these dresses that you’ve shared? Though I love the designs, the dresses are a bit out of my price range. Understand if it’s not doable, but I thought I’d put it out there just in case 😉

Thanks!

I love this dress so much and it’s so beautiful on you! I finally found one in my size on poshmark and was so sad when the seller cancelled the sale to sell to someone else who offered more on the side. I’m hopeful I’ll find another one still!
