A month or so ago, I saw a photo of a popular fashion blogger wearing the most adorable sleeveless drop waist dresses. Ever since then, I have been shopping around for just the right drop waist dress for the summer. When I was in junior high and high school, I remember my mom fashioning me some drop waist dresses out of t-shirts and then sewing material to the bottom of the shirts. I had several styles and colors and wore them on the regular. I loved them, and I don’t really know why I stopped wearing them, other than the fact that […]
Dress Form Outfit: Casual Saturday
Most weekends, you can find me in my favorite pair of jeans, a tank top, and a jacket of some sort. Where I’m going and how long I’ll be on my feet will determine what shoes I wear.

And since today is only supposed to be a high of 64, this lightweight jacket will be perfect over this tank top as I run around Knoxville!

It’s a dress made of often colorful and elaborately patterned jersey material that wraps around the body, crosses at the chest and cinches at the waist. Diane has […]
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 […]
Pleats! Yes, Please!
Pleats are so on trend right now! They are perfect for holiday parties. Pleats add a touch of fancy to any outfit! I purchased my first pleated skirt back in July. It is green and black, and hits just above my knees. I totally plan on wearing it this holiday season with a black sweater, some black tights, and some cute black booties. Some of my favorite bloggers are featuring pleats on their Instagram accounts and on their blogs. Metallics, deep burgundy and blush tones, maxis and midi skirts, shiny satins and plush velvets. These pleated skirts can be styled […]
