Yesterday was payday, and I went online shopping! I bought two dresses from Modcloth, and I can't wait for them to get here. In the process, I kind of realized something about my style.
It's always going to be kind of pin-up/50's flirt. There's a natural affinity between this style and the hourglass body type. Whether that's in or not, with the rest of the world, seems kind of irrelevant. It's what I like.
So that was kind of a revelation. Lately, going to stuff with friends, I've been finding myself defending my desire to get dressed up for even the simple get-togethers. But, frankly, that's just who I am. I like getting dolled up. I do that thing.
It's fun!

It's fun for you, and ultimately, for the rest of us as well. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome style- and Modcloth has tons of cutey flirty dresses I always drool over! Cath and I both like getting dressed up for more simple occasions- I think it makes things more exciting!
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that you know what best flatters your body type and stick with it. Ultimately, no matter what the trends are, you will look your best. And I think it's fabulous that you get dressed up. I am perpetually overdressed compared to others but it just makes me feel better about myself and life in general.
ReplyDeleteAnd I cannot wait to see what dresses you purchased!
What a great shop. I'd never seen it before. When it comes to dressing up - the more the better!
