Haute Holly Style: The New Shellie Dress

Hey Hauties,

I'm in LA right now, so this week's look is breezy and eclectic. We're featuring the New Shellie Dress in plum. You could wear this look for a day of shopping or to a lunch date. Just take away the cardigan, and you're all set for a night on the town.


First, let me introduce you all to Shannon Barney. She's the babe you see modeling in my last couple posts. She's an up-and-coming actress in Los Angeles who has recently been on shows like Revenge and Comedy Central's Nathan For You. Obviously she's stunningly gorgeous, but she's very down-to-earth and amazing to work with. I'm calling it now, she's one to follow. (And if you're inclined to do so, here's her Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.)

Second, a bit of history about the Shellie Dress. This is the original Shellie Dress from 2008. I designed it for my friend (who, duh, is named Shellie) to wear to a Tiesto concert where my friends and I were hosting Tiesto himself. I had actually completely forgotten about that night until just now as I'm writing this.


I have polished a few things since then, but I still loved how PRETTY the Shellie Dress made you feel. It's the way it twirls. I dare a gal to twirl in a dress and not feel pretty. I felt a nod to the original Shellie Dress was due, so the NEW Shellie Dress was born.


The New Shellie Dress by itself is definitely dressy, but the chiffon material paired with a slouchy grey cardigan makes a look that is cool and casual. We went with black booties for a bit of edge. A black hat brings the look together as effortlessly stylish.
