Friday Frocks: Oh Baby, Baby!

By |August 12th, 2011|Friday Frocks, Why Did You Wear That?|

Since we’ve been on the topic… The last thing I feel like doing when I have a “friend in town” is squeezing myself into a dress tight enough to cut off all blood circulation and then shoving my poor undeserving toes into shoes that could serve as a form of ancient torture.  Whether you’re feeling the bloat like me or you just want to indulge in dessert at dinner, the babydoll dress is the answer to all of our problems.  Flowy and romantic, it is feminine enough not to be frumpy.  While you wont’ be able to see the outline of your organs, you’ll still look pretty.  Guys probably won’t be a fan of this one… but your tummy will.

Why Did You Wear That: Green With Envy

By |December 7th, 2010|Personal Style, Why Did You Wear That?|

This time of year, most people think of red for holiday dressing. Well, I say, why not go against the grain?  Who wants to blend into the crowd when you can lead the pack? Rather than going with the obvious crimson dress, seek out something green.  Green is actually much more flattering and easier to wear for all skin tones. Whether you go evergreen or army, going green is sure to leave them envious.
