Chartreuse Chic
for eco friendly fashionistas

For not-so-stormy nights



I'll be honest -- this dress is monumentally out of my price range right now. Especially since I can't actually wear it everywhere every singe day like I want to (sexy open backs don't quite make it in professional environments.) But this here gives you the perfect mix of embellished and relaxed that you need to strike that crucial balance for night out dressing; put it on, and you'll look absolutely effortless and still be entirely unforgettable.

I've been keeping my eye out for buyable pieces from Beau Soleil ever since Inhabit had a post about their new environmental line. Though I should have guessed that anyone with a favorite oyster would not be designing with my budget in mind, I really appreciate the relaxed sensibility and the beautiful details on everything in the collection.

Beau Soleil Criss Cross Dress $295. Free shipping from Beklina. Also available directly from the Beau Soleil web store, but then you've got $20 shipping and have to go through Paypal... and miss out on Beklina's beautiful packaging!
