Comfortable Chic

 

Anthropologie is a rockin place to go for looks that are simultaneously super chic and totally comfortable. Case in point, The Dogwood Blouse. For serious. I love. Great neckline, ultra awesome muted hue, and lightweight sheer fabric perfect for warmer weather. Pair this baby with some shiny gold, skinny cuffed pants, and BAM! Freakin Aqua Flats! Oooh Yeeeeeah!

Oranges and Lemons and Cherries, Oh My! 

This dress is excellent. Why? Because I said so that's why! 

Okay, not really. 

It's excellent because it's black, so it's easy to wear. It has a fitted top to accentuate "the ladies". It's got a cute striped belt detail to show off tiny lady waists and a nice full skirt to hide jiggly lady butts. Okay, MY jiggly lady butt. Pair this dress with some citrus-saturated accessories and you are set for...

Juice? NO! Sassy Juice!

This dress is so sweet! It crisscross wraps in the back and has a darling little scoop peek-a-boo.

So comfortable and easy to wear. Pair it with some bright wedges; I opted for this fun red and pink pair, but any saturated hue would work with the simplicity of the black and white stripes.

Haute Boudoir

The oh so talented Kristen Hudson-Nichols is at it again with an amazing peek at Little Ms H's Haute Boudoir session I really can't say enough good things about Haute Boudoir. You should go book a session now. No really, go now, book session. She makes every woman (that means you!) feel sexy and look amazing. Plus she's a bucket full of fun, most of my session was spent giggling!

Rays of Sun

Last week Modcloth had a lovely blog post about Mata Traders, a fair trade label run by two best friends in Chicago. Their aim? Education, Employment and Empowerment for women around the world. Not only do they make lovely figure flattering dresses but they also make some super fab accessories like the Rays of Sun Necklace. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to feature it!
