Had to share one last recap of my parents’ 50th Had to share one last recap of my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary party because that clip of them dancing and my dad dancing with my daughters will forever be one of my favorite memories 🥹

My parents fled Vietnam in 1975 after the war ended. When they arrived in Washington to meet their sponsors, my dad happened to see my mom and aunt at the airport struggling and not knowing any English. He stepped in to help them then pursued my mom for the next six months. They got married shortly after in 1976 and the rest is history!

As recent refugees starting over in a new country, they didn’t have much money, so they had a small, simple wedding. That’s why I knew I wanted to make their 50th anniversary party extra special and give them the beautiful celebration they never had. Happy 50th anniversary to my parents!! ❤️🥂 #50years #anniversaryparty

Black and White Gingham Dress

Gingham is one of my favorite prints for the summer months. It comes in so many different sizes and colors, giving you endless outfit options! I’m sharing today this sweet gingham dress. Every time I wear it, I always get compliments, and trust me, I’ve worn it often!

I love this gingham dress because it’s versatile and great for various occassions. At work (I work in a laid back environment), I pair it with a black cardigan to achieve a summery, sophisticated look for the office. I’ve also thrown on a jean jacket over the dress, which gives it a cool, retro vibe. My favorite way to wear this gingham dress is without a cardigan or jacket and let the simple design really speak for itself.

Since I’m only 5’4″, I use the adjustable straps to make this gingham dress the shortest as it can be, just past my knees. The tie in front of the chest also allows you to tighten or loosen it, depending on your chest size. I obviously tighten it as much as I can cause there ain’t not much going on there heheh. But because I need to tighten it so much, the sides (right below the armpit area) do bunch up, but it’s not super noticeable since my arms are usually covering the area.

I’ve been really into comfortable outfits lately so I wear these bow flats almost every day. They just go with everything! I haven’t bought new shoes in a while, but I am on the look out for some new pairs soon, especially with the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale coming up later this week!

If you need more inspiration, here are a couple of other posts where I’m wearing a gingham dress:

  • 22 Gingham Print Items to Rock This Summer – this rose garden is so dreamy!
  • Blue Gingham at Discovery Park

I love how each of these three dresses are similar but different. Which gingham dress is your favorite?

    That plaid bowknot cami dress looks very pretty being modelled by you – prettier even than it does on the ChicWish website. You look fabulous. That bouquet of flowers you were holding looks pretty too.

    This is such a cute outfit, girlie! I love the dress and the bow flats look so good with them. I’ve really been into chic flats myself, especially with Aviah. They’re much more comfortable and practical. Thanks for sharing such beautiful inspo and I hope you’re having a great week so far!

    Gingham print is so pretty! I don’t know what it is about it but I just can’t get enough! Out of the three dresses, this one is my favorite. I particularly am attracted to the front tie detail as opposed to the one in the back. This dress is simple but also very classy and chic.

    That dress is cute! I don’t doubt that you really do get tons of compliments every time you wear it. I really love how versatile it is, and the details are amazing. The bow in the front makes it stand out and I really like the flared skirt. Also, I need to get myself a pair of those bow flats!
