Dress of the Day: Tommy Bahama Blue Coral Dress

Never in a million years did we think we would ever wear something from Tommy Bahama, a brand that we have historically associated with 55 year old wealthy retired men in Orange County whose favorite past time is deep sea fishing (don't ask us how we built that image in our heads - we just did).

However, the Blue Coral dress, though not completely changing our idea, at least gives us a reason to perhaps try Tommy Bahama. The navy blue halter dress has ivory embroidered embellishments at the high waistline (more like the bottom of the bustline), and the hem falls 31" from the natural neckline. We love the femininity of the full skirt and the embroidery detai that are paired with a little bit of a plunging neckline. We like this dress paired with comfortably cute flats for a Sunday afternoon brunching and shopping with Mom and Dad.

The dress is available from Nordstrom for $198.
