It's a Party


A friend is having a mad men themed party.  So of course that means late '50s early '60s dress required.  If you know me at all, you know that there has never been a full skirt that I said no to.  I love the romantic look of the 50s!  BUT lately I've been wanting to look more sophisticated.  I want sleeker silhouettes, and a more polished look.  Therefore, I couldn't help but look up a bunch of dresses on etsy. I found all of the above 60s style dresses!  I love #3.  Too bad pink is not my color.  Isn't the color of #1 amazing?

Tuesday Fashion Cravings

That perfect party dress.  Brian and I were discussing my taste a while back and I described my style as "cute."  He was so relieved to finally come up with a word that described it.  "Yes, you dress cute!" he said.  This conversation took place in London where all of the girls were dressed like women.  I felt very much like a 24 year old girl.  I might not be making sense.  Anyway I have been looking at more grown up clothes lately and trying to not buy the cute floral stuff that I want to.  But hey I bought a chiffon floral skirt and that's more grown up looking that a cotton one...right?
Anyway...I was browsing www.modcloth.com and found some more grown up looking party dresses....

I don't know why I wrote that little story about trying to look more grown up.  The more I kept looking the "cuter" the dresses got.
