OUTFIT: red off-shoulder dress top | Bikinis & Passports

OUTFIT: unexpected red.

In all honesty, I am not particularly fond of the color red. It simply has never appealed to me, and I don’t see myself as someone who pulls it off well. However, when I spotted this dress, it somehow hit a nerve – in a very positive way. I decided to take a chance on something unexpected for my closet and ordered the red off-shoulder dress before I had time to change my mind. Turns out, the color isn’t so bad after all. Actually, pretty awesome for Summer! While the dress is a bit too see-through to wear it here in Vienna, I simply turned it into a top by tucking it into my jeans, and I am sure that it will also work over a bathing suit for lounging by the pool on vacation. What do you guys think about the unexpected red?

    While Ibiza is mostly known for it’s parties, there is also so much more to the small Spanish island. Idyllic coves, sandy beaches and amazing food awaits. One of my favorite spots on Ibiza is definitely Cotton Beach Club. A stunning white interior, delicious sangria and an even better view are the perfect reason to visit Cala…

    It would be repetitive to tell you guys how much I adore a good pair of palazzo pants. By now, most of you have probably gotten the hint that it is simply one of those pieces I have a serious weakness for. For me personally, palazzo and all sorts of wide-legged pants are the ultimate…

    I am currently sitting in a train en route to Munich, gazing outside and watching the snow covered fields and mountain peaks pass by.

  1. It’s definitely unexpected to see you in red!
    I need to get used to it but it’s a nice combo and a nice shade of red, definitely take it with you on your girls vacation to Ibiza 🙂

    About the color red, I’m just like you, I have pretty much nothing (1 sweater but it’s more a rusty red)
    I have blonde hair and I find that the combination of my hair with red clothes can very quick be/look hootchy.. It needs to be the right tone of red! (And we all know there are many so the search ain’t easy..)

  2. Rot steht dir super. Ich würde das Kleid gerne noch in einem weiteren Outfit-Post sehen, nur als Kleid für sich! Ich glaube das sieht dann noch besser aus. Zu deinem Teint könnte ich mir ganz dunkle Beerentöne auch wunderbar vorstellen – würde sicher super gut aussehen.

    1. Hi Sandy,

      wie im Post geschrieben ist es leider super durchsichtig – daher kann man es als “nur Kleid” leider nur am Strand mit Bikini drunter oder so tragen.

  3. Supercooles Outfit! Gefällt mir sehr, vor allem auch die Hose!

    @vicky: kannst du mir sagen, ist deine vlaue offshoulder bluse von chicwish bei den schultern durch den gummi auch relativ eng?
    Hab mir die bluse auch bestellt und obwohl ich normalerweise 34/36 trage schneidet mir der Gummi bei den Schultern ein 🙁
    Weitet sich der mit der Zeit oder wie trägst du die Bluse bequem längere Zeit??

    Danke & LG

    1. Hi Kathrin,

      ohjee das tut mir leid. Also meine Bluse schneidet auf keinen Fall ein und ich kann mich auch nicht mehr explizit daran erinnern, dass das am Anfang so gewesen wäre 🙁 Ich trage normalerweise 38, also müsste sie dir ja auf jeden Fall passen!

  4. I have to say that the off-shoulder dress looks extremely good, definitely something I’d buy, but I love the way you tucked in the dress and made it look like a long flow-y top. It looks extremely good on you, Vicky. I also love the way you styled your hair, it suits your face nicely and those sunglasses are something that I WANT, but, I am afraid that they might not suit me the way they suit you.
    I really like your dressing sense.
