Insights on Literature, etiquette, and Beauty from a Catholic wife and mom

Thank You Marie Zélie For Sponsoring This Post!

I’ve shared my love for Marie Zélie before and you can read about it in THIS post. Their clothing is both feminine and elegant, and I always look forward to wearing their pieces! When I tried on these three items they sent me, I didn’t want to take them off! They are stunning!

My style has definitely transitioned throughout the years but one thing that has remained unchanging is my love for all things floral. I was so excited when I opened the package from Marie Zélie because two of the pieces have the most beautiful floral print!

The Carissa Proserpina Skirt is a flared, floral tea-length skirt that can pair with most tops in my closet because of the array of colors it contains! I styled it with a dark orange body suit that I purchased a few years ago and loved the combination of the gorgeous print against the simple fabric.

The other floral piece Marie Zélie sent is the Asteria Lineata Dress. Though designed to be worn year round, the vibrancy of colors makes the Asteria Dress an ideal piece for Spring and would be the perfect dress to wear for Easter! I love the feminine, elegant details Marie Zélie incorporates in all of their designs and the length of the sleeves, along with the simplicity of the boat neck in this dress is no exception. Every detail – from the fabric to the unique construction is well thought out and doesn’t go unappreciated.

As much as I love floral, the final piece is my favorite. The Aura Cinnamon Dress is truly an all-occasion dress. Its softened cotton lining makes it the most comfortable dress I’ve ever worn. The flowing fabric along with buttons on the top and cuffs remind me of my wedding dress, making it my first choice for next date night! In these last few weeks of the season, this dress instantly brightens up the winter days!
