So, as you know, I'm officially no longer a twenty's something
individual--and I'm really all right with that.
As awesome as my twenty's were, I feel as though I'm at
the tippy-top of a giant roller coaster,
waiting for the fall and the crazy ride that follows.
God is at work in my life and I can't imagine what
the next great adventure might be.
On my 30th birthday, of all days, I wanted to look like the grown-up I'msupposed to be, so I went with me newly acquired Tiny Windows dress.
If you follow me, you know I can never leave anything alone,
which is why I permanently popped the collar.
Diane von Furstenburg is always doing this with her designs,
and since I can't really afford her dresses,
I'm trying to make do with what I have.
Plus, I love how a stand-up collar takes a dress from serviceable to something that commands attention.

What a perfect dress for the birthday girl - you look so girly and pretty, I love it! This dress was such a steal, I'm glad you were able to get one!

Kristina, I love this dress! And your style :) I actually bought a dress that I would love your opinion on. It's a very cute black dress but kinda of bland. Needs help and since I don't have much style at all I thought maybe you could help. What color of tights to wear, change the belt color, shoes? I would like to wear it to homecoming, but don't know if it will work or not. Contact me and I'll send you a pic, that is if you're willing to help an "old" friend, in more ways than one! (age, years known, style, etc...lol)
ReplyDeleteI like this dress, especially with that belt!!! Just perfect for a birthday celebration!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great birthday! You looked great for your special day regardless =)
ReplyDeleteWow, genius with the collar! You have such a great eye!!
