Caroline Forbes’ Floral Dress Mirrored Her Optimism on ‘TVD’ this Week

Caroline Forbes was not dressed in her typical style this week, but her dress mirrored her sheer positivity against all odds.

This week Caroline was wearing a Sakura floral dress by Rebecca Taylor. The minute the Barbie Vamp graced the screen in this dress, I didn’t like her look. It just wasn’t her, and I’m a big fan of most of her looks. It stood out to me so much. Not to say that all her looks have to be on point. Her fiancé is a ripper that she’s trying to save, and the devil just gave Damon an ultimatum to kill her or 100 innocent people. The outfit is not the most important element right now.

As the episode continued, Caroline was her typical cheerful, optimistic self, and the dress seemed to make her even more positive, if that’s even possible.

Nothing was wrong with the dress; it just wasn’t her. If you want to recreate her look, you can purchase the dress directly from the Rebecca Taylor website for $159. If you absolutely must have the brand but can’t quite afford that price tag, Nordstrom Rack has the dress on sale for $119.

Don’t fret if you can’t break the bank to get the look. Forever 21 has a floral dress similar to the one Caroline wore for only $20. Better yet, try this contemporary floral mini dress (see right) that I think looks cuter than the designer one.
