Dressing my Dress Form with Butterflies

Spring is right around the corner and I’m going through my closet pulling out some of my favorite spring pieces. With Spring, comes lovely pastel colors and sweet patterns, like this bitterly dress shirt. Today on the blog, I’m sharing one of my weekend favorites – jeans and a dress shirt. Today’s dress form outfit features a shirt from Forever 21, jeans from G by Giuliana (purchased on HSN), and lace-up wedge sandals. My name {Vanessa} means butterfly and I just gravitated to this shirt. I wear is a lot throughout the year, especially in the Spring and Summer months. The pastel […]

Warm Winter Dress Form Outfit

Dress Form Outfit / www.vanessahwood.com

Today I decided to feature a warm winter outfit on my antique dress form. Wearing a warm winter outfit is key during these first few months of the new year. Our East Tennessee winter has been a mix of cold and warm. And because the weather has been indecisive these last few weeks, I tend to dress in layers. However, the sweater in this warm winter outfit is light enough so I don’t get too hot when it’s warm outside. My new favorite jeans are the G by Giuliana Luxe Stretch Denim Boyfriend Jeans, available at HSN. Giuliana’s clothes are currently […]

My Go-To Fall Fashion Look

I love Fall because I can pull out my sweaters and jeans, top the look off with a scarf, and be out the door in no time. Here is one of my go-to Fall outfits.

They literally are the best luxe boyfriend jeans around. And I have finally found a cool pair of comfortable riding boots. They are a bear to get on and to pull off, but once […]

Fall Fashion with My ModCloth Loch and Key Scarf

I am loving the Loch and Key ModCloth scarf I received in my Fall 2016 FabFitFun box last week. I love it so much, I decided to style my dress form with a simple denim dress and accessorize it with my new ModCloth scarf. Talk about serious #scarfgoals! The Loch and Key scarf seen below is taupe plaid, but the scarf comes in three other colors: black plaid, forrest plaid (sold out), and brown plaid. I put the scarf around the denim dress, like a shawl, and belted the dress and scarf. Because Fall can get a little chilly at night, […]

Who’s Ready for Some Football?

College football is underway, and football fans are sporting their team’s colors loud and proud. Although I live in East Tennessee – home of the Tennessee Volunteers – my heart still belongs to Texas. I grew up just outside of Lubbock – home of the Texas Tech Red Raiders. My brother, who has been a die-hard Texas Aggies fan since he was a junior in high school at Levelland High School, is now a senior at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. Last year, I visited my brother and sister-in-law and had the opportunity and the privilege to attend the […]
