What I Wore- Dancing Queen

One of my favorite outfits ever.

Shirt- Target. Jeans- Torrid. Shoes- Primark (UK). Earrings & Bracelet- Charming Charlies.

One dress, 3 days

So any chubby chick knows the dangers of the "chub rub". Your thighs chafing together underneath your pretty dress, turning any dress wearing day into a hellish nightmare of discomfort and hot red skin. Ok, I exaggerate. But who enjoys wearing bicycle shorts, spanx, or leggings under every dress? It's fine in the winter, when I can wear colorful tights, but the summer months in Phoenix are unforgivable and too too hot to think of sporting anything but bare legs. I recently ordered a product from Skindura on etsy that you rub on your thighs that eliminates chafing and makes it a breeze to wear dresses. I'm looking forward to a comfortable summer!

Up now- one dress, 3 ways. 

Worn as a long skirt for work! (FYI, I don't work in an office setting, so a little boho is fine!) Dress- Liberty for Target. Shoes- Payless (old). Shirt- Target plus. Tank top- Forever21. Necklaces- Thrifted.

 

What I Wore- Golden Rays

Turned a dress that I wore for a ball this past December into a skirt. Paired with a gray tank and oversize sweater, it felt just casual enough for the weekend. I still need to hem the skirt, as it is far too long for wearing flats or sandals.

What I Wore- Retrospect part 1

More for my own benefit, I'm going to post some of the outfits I wore as a study abroad student in the UK last fall. I only brought one suitcase and tried to utilize my clothes as much as possible. Still, I developed a sort of uniform- dress, long sleeve tee, tights, boots or flats, and my bright coat. Hopefully the next time I go I can experiment a bit more with my fashion!

What I Wore- Lace and Stripes

I know. Stripes again? I normally hate maxi skirts, but this was handmade (by me) and is just too comfy to not wear.

What I Wore- Clashing Colors

Say a little prayer for the dearly departed soul of my favorite red jeans (sob). This was definitely the last day I can wear them confidently in public. The crotch/thigh rips are getting a little frequent on the worn out material. The shirt is actually a dress that I am undecided on, thus the weird length. Might cut into a blouse, might make it a skirt... can't decide.

Shirt/Dress- Forever21 Plus.  Jeans- Torrid.  Bracelet and Necklace- Charming Charlies  Shoes- Ross.
