Weekly Observations
Asymmetrical One-shoulder red dress
(Extracted from Lookbook: 'Tim Berg-Seek Bromance (Jerome Price mix) maffashion' by Juliett K.)

I REALLY LOVE this one shoulder with ruffles look and the oriental covered knot button detail that goes down center front. This would have looked really amazing if it was extended to become a long dress as well.

Oriental Ruffle Dress with Train Technical Flats
