Malibu Barbie

 Dress: Forever 21 
Similar:
Hawaiian print with a scuba fit HERE
Sleeveless floral shirt dress HERE
Tropical floral with cutouts HERE
Purse: DailyLook - Similar (splurge/steal) - I also think THIS one from Tobi is identical (Join tobi.com HERE for 50% off your first order) 
Shoes: White 'Lo-Pro' Vans - HERE
Ring: Jewelmint 'Gold Reef Ring'
Sunnies: Ray-Ban 'Erika' - HERE







 The second I put on this outfit, I automatically thought of Malibu Barbie. Is this not something she would totally wear to the beach?? Obviously she would change out the white tennies for pink pumps, but still.
This was the perfect date night outfit. I wore it to dinner with the boy, and I got multiple compliments from him throughout the night. He even liked my blindingly neon bag!

I tried out white nails for the first time this summer and loved the fresh feel they gave the outfit. Adding my white vans to the mix was the perfect way to keep it casual for our dinner date. Next time I wear this, I think I might just have to add some pink shoes....

  12. hahaha Ashley, this totally IS something Malibu Barbie would wear!! I love that you pointed that out. That dress has such a cute, unique floral pattern. It's like tropical flowers instead of your typical five-petaled flowers (which are dicot plants!!! I've beens studying for biology so now you know). And your white nails are so preeeeeetty!

  16. You should definitely wear pink pumps with this next time! :)
    Although I definitely like the white vans with it as well. Aha, that's something I would do to keep things more casual. You most definitely look reminiscent of Malibu Barbie! You're just a living barbie doll ;)

  18. I can see the Malibu barbie thing - you look better, though, you're not freakishly tall (and she always wore the shortest skirts!). I guess I've already kind of said it, but I LOVE this dress!

  22. Malibu Barbie is the perfect description for it!! I think it might be too much with pink heels. The white tennies tone it down very nicely!
