Now that Fall is quickly approaching, my style is changing. I mean, it still feels like Summer, but I’m ready for the cooler temps. This dress form outfit is a perfect pre-Fall outfit. I paired this fitted denim shirt with an olive/brown-colored belted skirt. I rolled the sleeves up to give it a casual feel and stacked a few black and white marble-colored bangles on one sleeve. As for footwear, I would pair this outfit with a some knee-high boots. I also like the idea of heels with this outfit, but they would have to be the right pair. Here […]

Celebrating My #2017BestNine from Instagram

I can’t believe we’re already into the second week of the new year. Where has the time gone? I was thinking about last year (like it was so long ago), when I remembered that I posted my #2017BestNine Instagram photos on my IG account. In looking at those nine photos, I realized that they were all photos I posted to promote a blog post I wrote, with the exception of the ninth photo. So as a recap of last year’s “best nine” {I mean, today is #flashbackfriday, am I right?}, I thought I would share the blog posts that match […]

Here are some of my dress form outfits from that first year. As I purchased clothes, whether they were from a thrift store or a department store, they showed up on my dress form at one time or another. Outfit #20 showed […]

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 […]

A few years ago, I received an antique dress form for Christmas and I started a series called, “Dress Form Outfits”. I showed off an outfit every week. I did that for one full year. Then I stopped.
