    Happy Dress

    I procrastinated over buying this dress for quite a while. I must have been crazy because now that I have it I absolutely love it! The colours are truly gorgeous, the fit and quality are exceptional and whenever I wear it I feel uplifted. This is indeed my Happy Dress and I adore it!

    Funky 70's Vibe

    At first, I thought this print was hideous. Then, the more I saw it on others, the more I started to like it. Then I tried it on, and I loved it! It's big and bold and fun. The material is lightweight, so the dress will pair nicely with white pants in the summer. For the fall, I plan to play up the blues and the dark purple-ish color on the stems (?). I also like the asymmetrical pattern placement on the dress I received.

    A Bit of Everything So Sweet Would Certainly Please the Gods!

    Ambrosia's pattern, to me , combines wildly different colors and patterns, yet with a certain order. Just as Ambrosia satisfied the mighty Greek gods, I find this dress to be quite pleasing and satisfying, as well. The controlled chaos is amusing and centering- quite an accomplishment! Many compliments have been received, as well.

    Love the dress

    It's a beautiful pattern, just the right size S for my petite yet curvy and full breast frame. Colors compliment my complexion and I feel so comfortable walking into a room and owning it! Oh, and I love the compliments I get on the dress!!

    Do Not Be Intimidated By This Pattern

    There is a lot going on here. The unexpected color combination, the diagonal lines, the berries, leaves, stripes and the warm white negative space. When I first tried it on I thought, no way, I can’t do it. But I loved the pattern so I bought it a few weeks later, packed it up for my spring break to Florida. I tried it on for one of my fashionable friends, she too, thought it may be too much. I took it off and stuffed it in my suitcase. By the time I returned home I had missed the 30 day return policy AND received a message to review the dress. Ambrosia was once again packed up but this time to Budapest for a photo op for the review. It so happened on the day I chose to wear it, I passed a metro stop which had the exact color palette and diagonal design. What are the chances?! With all that said, sometimes it takes three tries, the perfect accessory, in this case the wide legged white pants and several compliments from Hungarians who don’t give them out easily especially to strangers.
