Spring Style: Puff-Sleeve Floral Midi Dress

Surprise! I am posting on Tuesday this week, instead of Monday, because I am joining my dear friend Ada of Elegancy and Mommyhood in her annual birthday blog party post! Ada is one of the sweetest people I have ever virtually met through blogging, one who always makes time to leave an encouraging word or kind comment to uplift others' days. In honor of Ada today, I am sharing a puff-sleeve floral midi dress that I think would be a fabulous choice to wear to a birthday party. I am so thankful to be fully vaccinated now, and with many cities planning to reopen in time for summer there is a very real chance I could be able to wear this outfit out to a celebration with friends very soon. In today's outfit, I cinched the waist of this cheerful floral dress with a pink belt, then added nude ankle strap sandals, a ruched clutch, and some of my favorite gold jewelry pieces. Please keep scrolling for more photos, outfit links, blog party details, and more of my picks for floral statement dresses to inspire your spring and summer outfits.

As I mentioned earlier, I am thrilled to be joining my dear friend Ada today for her annual blog birthday post! My favorite part of blogging is definitely the virtual friendships created over the years, and I feel so lucky to have met so many wonderful and supportive women including Ada. I am thrilled to be joining Ada again for her blog birthday party this year along with five fabulous bloggers (links to their individual blogs are below), to virtually celebrate this beautiful woman today. Wishing you a wonderful birthday, Ada! Sharing Ada's own words as well: "Birthdays are - in my opinion - a reminder of the good years we have lived and all that we have left behind, filled with hopes, dreams and promises of the future years ahead of us! Each day of the 365 days is a chance from God to start anew and embrace the day as it comes: the good, the bad and the ugly! Today is my birthday and for the 9th year in a row - since I started my blog - I am doing my annual blog birthday party, as a way to celebrate with all of you. I want to thank all of my blogging friends that participated this year and I appreciate their beautiful outfits and even more beautiful birthday messages. I am the lady in gold today, shining in a textured, tiered dress by White House Black Market and coordinating gold and tan accessories."
