Okay, second try. It's not getting much easier yet, but thanks to a helpful twit-tip, I went with a neutral-toned look to keep the flashes of reds interesting. 

I happened upon a floral version of this Pencey Standard dress on one of my online shopping expeditions and I just fell in love with the simple, yet unique open back cut. After obsessively learning more about the brand and seeing all they have to offer, I found the gray color on one of my favorite online stores, Electric Frenchie.  With a gift card in hand and a few clicks, this was mine in just a matter of days. I love it so much that I'm definitely going to get the floral one too. Just can't let this one go! But if you're petite, realize that this dress is way long, which is why I had taken scissors to the hem (hey, my mind was set on wearing it out before thinking of taking it to the tailor). Oh the woes of being vertically challenged.

      Thanks Iris, I love the little flash of red too. It's a nice contrast I think.
