Seaworthy

Doesn’t this dress just make you want to skip town and head someplace beachy?!  Priced at only $54, you might not be saving enough for a tropical vacation, but you should have enough extra cash to make a few caipirinhas and dance by the river.  It’s the perfect dress for a necklace too. We are head-over-heels with all of our selections from Seaworthy, a new-to-Minx jewelry line out of Portland by Marisa Howard.

Modern Marilyn

One spin in this dress and you’ll have invisible dancing hearts circling your head.  The cut is super-vintage without feeling costumey.  A full circle skirt and halter top sandwich a flattering wide yolk with a hint of stretch making it super-comfy and figure-flattering. Come give this stunner a try and channel your inner silver screen goddess!
