I love finding an outfit that I feel like I could live in all summer, and this pink ombre dress is perfect. Not only does it look good on my dress form, but I totally believe that can (and will) rock this dress this summer! I purchased it from my blogger friend Katie Lee {of Pearls & Twirls} and her lovely boutique, My Kind of Lovely. This lightweight dress is flowy and doesn’t cling to the body… it’s like it was made just for me! For this dress form outfit, I paired the dress with my always “in style” denim […]

This summer I’m all about finding new ways to wear items in my wardrobe that don’t get much use, and the outfit featured in this month’s “Dress Form Outfit” post is a small step out of my comfort zone.

Who’s ready for summer, besides me! The weather was so nice this past week that I drove home with the top down on my car the other day. Then when I got home, I took my dress form outfit outside, along with a few outfits, because I wanted to take advantage the warm breeze and what was left of the amazing sun before it set behind the horizon.
