Smart Set taupe dress

My route in the shopping mall do not usually vary. Recently at Coquitlam Centre, I ventured upstairs to Suzy Shier. It offers young, modern and chic items at an affordable price. I find it comparable to Dynamite. The material renders most items good only for a few (if not one) seasons but the low price makes it affordable to discard. They were having their buy one get second at half price. I walked away with two dresses.

The first one $11:
Sofft wedge shoes ($30) sample sale
Stella and Dot River Lariat $69
The cotton material makes it comfortable to wear and I love this heathered taupe shade. It came with it's own braided belt but I sometimes switch it up with my own. I think it was supposed to be a tunic but score one for petites - it becomes a dress.

The second one $28:
It needs to be hemmed. (Excuse the wet hair; couldn't wait.)

Here it is after taking up the hem.


Jessica Nude peep-toe heels with t-strap $12.50
The upper portion is a wrap top. The bottom has pleats that disguise a big tummy like mine.



The only thing I don't like is the thin padding at the shoulders. Not too noticeable except to me but not too bothersome.

Do you have any luck at this store?

  2. @Ruth: I agree. With hem below my knees, I look like I'm missing legs!
