Well, I definitely stuck out like a sore thumb on campus in this one. This was my second Persunmall piece, and it's a beauty, isn't it? I'm not very good at hiding my obsession with white dresses and things with collars, so getting out of my comfort zone wasn't really an option when I saw this one on the site. I'll admit that it fits a little weird, but not enough to make me dislike it. I think I'll wear it as a top tucked into a skirt next time I wear it, which I'm pretty sure will be immediately. It should be noted that I managed to make it almost the whole day without spilling anything on it. It was a Dairy Queen run that eventually got me though.
As for real life things, I had an eventful weekend attending the wedding of two of my close friends, Steve and Liz. I know both of them from college, but weirdly enough met them separately from each other. Liz was a fashion major (who graduated last semester) and Steve is an editor at my paper. They're two of the most wonderful people I know — not to mention one of the most genuinely happiest couples I know — so I couldn't be happier for them. The wedding was lovely, and I apologize to anyone who follows me on Instagram for the overload of photos. Worth it.
Side note: I'm obsessed with the new Volcano Choir album and the song that I titled this post after, "Bygone," has been on repeat all week. If you love(d) Bon Iver, I suggest you check it out right this second.

Love the color on the dress! Nothing wrong with standing out by being yourself-- no matter how cliche that sounds. Congrats to your friends!

Such a cute dress (I love the little collar). And I think it'll look brilliant tucked into a skirt.

You look great!! I love the contrast that the bright collar adds--and man, I swear it's a law that when you're wearing white you're more likely to spill something!
