Paloma Red Embroidered Short Dress

The red embroidery is even prettier in person, and the fabric has just enough stretch that I can actually move around without feeling stiff. Wore it with some simple heels for a dinner out and got three compliments before the appetizers even arrived.

The A-line cut is so flattering, and the red shade is even richer in person—I've already worn it twice this week, once with heels and once dressed down. It's genuinely become my go-to for anything that calls for a little bit of effort without the fuss.

The embroidery is really pretty and the a-line skirt has a nice twirl to it, but the red is more of a bright tomato than I expected. It fits true to size, though I think it'll need a slip underneath since the fabric feels a bit thin.
