White Lace Shirt Dress: A Keeper!
Good morning! Today I am sharing the 5th piece from my Stitch Fix box. When I took it out of the box, I wasn’t overly impressed. I loved the fact that it was all white, which is definitely trending right now. The fabric felt very soft and the lace touches were nice, but it didn’t…
