I always gravitate towards lace because it’s so romantic and feminine. Obviously when I saw this pink lace dress, it seemed like an immediate no brainer for me (lace + pink = two of my favorite things!). Although these outfit photos turned out nice, the fit is slightly off, especially for a petite girl like me. Read on as I review this dress in more detail.
This pink lace dress is from Chicwish so the price is always great – it’s only $68 but looks much more expensive! Aren’t the lace floral details just gorgeous? It comes in white and mint as well. The quality is also pretty nice – the material is thick for lace and feels very durable.
For reference, I’m wearing a size XS and it fits true to size. Although this pink lace dress fit me, I wish the waist was more cinched. Because the dress is long on my 5’4″ frame, I need the waist to be more accentuated for it to look more flattering. This is to create shape on a long dress. I’m definitely all about midi dresses even for petite girls but they need to show off your curves (or the appearance of) so that it’s not one long frumpy dress. Here are examples of midi dresses (here, here) that I’ve worn that are much more flattering. For all of my tall ladies, this dress will look so much better on you. See my friend Amy Ann from Straight A Style rocking this dress in mint. She’s 5’10” and pulls it off beautifully!
I typically really like lace dresses from Chicwish but I think I need to stick to shorter length ones. I’m eyeing these options here and here.
P.S. Happy last day of July! Summer is just flying by and there are so many things I still want to do. One item I got checked off this weekend is going to the Outback Kangaroo Farm in Arlington (about an hour north of Seattle). I got to feed kangaroos and even kissed an alpaca!

This dress is so beautiful! I love lace and blush tones so this is right up my alley. I’m going through a midi/tea-length dress/skirt phase at the moment so I happen to like the length on you but shame that it doesn’t hit you at the waist the way you want it to.
At least you look gorgeous!
This dress is a work of art. I really like it.

This dress is gorgeous and I think it looks great on you! Thanks for the size guide because I’m the same height and sometimes I do find the waist part a bit too big in some of their dresses.

Your dress from Chichwish is really pretty. I like the color you picked out and I would probably try it mint too. This would be perfect for date night or a summer wedding.

You look extremely beautiful in that pretty Chicwish Ebullience of Flowers Crochet Cami Dress in Pink! Your hair and makeup look very pretty and so does the bouquet.
P.S.: THANK YOU for stopping by my blog yet again despite my not having posted for a year.
I have been having issues with body-confidence, age, and failing to get a decent camera/camcorder with remote – and with laziness and feeling a bit down too often. Thank you so much again for your comments and support.
I am so sorry to hear! I hope you’re able to find the confidence to post again. Do what makes you happy and don’t let others bring you down. Who cares what others think as long as you’re happy being who you are!!
Love seeing this dress on you! The pink is really pretty. I know what you mean about the waist though. Good review.

The dress is pretty. I understand what you mean about the waist I’m about 5′ 4 and I like to make sure the waist is defined if my dress is long. I’m still figuring out the best length of midi dress for me.

Thanks for such an honest review of this dress, Tina! Being a petite girl myself, I totally understand the struggle of things being either too long or not cinching in the right place. However, I think it looks absolutely lovely on you! I love that you kept the accessories neutral, and I think the pale pink color really makes your features stand out.
