Send all the pastels, gingham and floral prints my way!
You know how people are always searching for the perfect denim jean, well every year I'm always in search for the perfect dress. For the longest time I hated my legs, the shape of them to be precise, I was semi-teased about them in school but funny enough guys I've dated never noticed my "flaw" until I pointed it out to them. Don't ask me why I did that, I think it was my way of beating them to the punch, although it never fazed them one bit. I'd always cover them up every chance I got, so finding the perfect jean has never been a problem of mine, but I guess with age comes wisdom and a heavy dose of "I don't care" attitude and slowly I've learned to love my legs, even recognising the privilege to have legs at all, as "flawed" as I may think they are.
In the past my criteria for picking dresses was whatever was the longest, I soon recognised that this doesn't always work out for my 5'5" frame and it would look like I was drowning in fabric plus it meant that I've been missing out on all the cute dresses....like the one above! I mean how adorable is this dress from Nasty Gal! The picture quality doesn't do it justice. It's from last years collection so I don't have link to it but, I have compiled an edit of the dresses on my Spring/Summer radar...
