Dress Form Outfits: Under $50 Fashion Challenge

May 8, 2017 No Comments

Today’s blog post features not one, but two {yes, TWO} dress form outfits. Both dresses are from the summer dress collection at Old Navy. {And no, this is not a sponsored post for Old Navy.} I recently wrote a guest blog post for Lana with Lifestyle Queen Bee, about spending only $50 on an outfit and using items from my personal wardrobe to take the outfit from day to night. Check it out! To fully take advantage of my $50, I went to Old Navy. I had seen their commercials about their summer dresses and decided to head over and see […]

Oh How I Love Dress Forms!

April 17, 2017 No Comments

I have always loved dress forms, whether they be vintage or antique dress forms or wire-framed dress forms. I even like those mini dress forms you see at Hobby Lobby. So needless to say, I was super excited when I received one for Christmas a few years ago. I have used that dress form in my blog, as part of my “Dress Form Outfit” posts. Unlike the dress forms in this post, my dress form is fully functional. I can adjust every part of my dress form. I can make the chest larger or smaller, and in my case, I can make […]

Dressing for the Holidays

December 12, 2016 No Comments

Dressing for the holidays doesn’t always mean ugly sweaters or fancy party dresses. If you’re going out for dinner with friends, you could pair a simple dress with a brightly colored cardigan. But for me, having a few beautiful statement pieces can make the outfit even more special. Today’s dress form outfit is as much about the accessories {jewelry} as it is about the outfit. I purchased the necklace and rings {along with a power gemstone bracelet, and then received the chevron tribal arrow cuff as a gift} from the gorjana booth, back in August while attending the BlogHer #16 conference […]

When I Grow Up…

October 2, 2015 1 Comment

You can ask my mother about this, but when I was younger, I would always say that I wanted to be the next Barbara Walters. I would pretend I was a television newswoman, staring at my reflection in the microwave oven door, reading the news stories I had written. Then when I was about 16 years old, I began writing. I may have strayed from my original path as a writer from time to time, mainly because school and life got in the way. A couple of years ago, my passion for writing was reignited and I began a blog… […]
