Dressy Casual | Pink, Dots and Denim

Hi Ladies,
It's Monday! Eek! I survived last week...yay! It was touch and go for a little while, but when I got back from Chicago on Wednesday, I went to Trader Joes and bought $100 worth of groceries, then  went home with the intent of not leaving until the weekend was over. I kinda succeeded. I left a few times to go shopping at Staples, which is my new love, but otherwise I camped out and ate. :)

Hi Ladies,
I'm still slogging through my feline ring worm epidemic, but I'm getting all ready for Tuesday! Scream! :) Thank you to everyone who downloaded my guide, especially those of you who are tall and thin, you'll probably never need it, so I really appreciate the moral support. :)

How to wear a midi skirt | Casual business attire

How to wear a midi skirt | Casual business attire | Curvy Fashion | Plus Size Fashion Blog

Hi Ladies,
As you probably know, wearing a midi skirt when you are short or curvy can be very tricky. We've probably all tried them on and wondered who designed this!?!?!?! Who would make a skirt that cuts off at the most unattractive length (mid calf) and can instantly make you look short and stumpy? Well, the answer is simple...if you get the right cut, a midi skirt can make you look long and lean!

Maxi Skirt Outfit - (Weekend Style)

Hi Ladies,
You know who I envy? Those bloggers who can sit down and neatly summarize their thoughts, feelings and life events into a few neat paragraphs and then Voila!...they are done with a post. Me - you put a computer and mouse in front of my hand and suddenly my mind goes blank.

Hi Ladies,
So, this is more of a "concept outfit". :-)  I don't think I would ever have the guts to wear it outside, but in the safety of my own home...that's a different matter.

 Hi Ladies,

Capris & Sweater - (Weekend Style)

Hi Ladies,
Sometimes a petite women's best friend is separates instead of a dress. Dresses have to fit perfectly at the waist, shoulders, etc. However if you buy two items that fit, you can make a perfect outfit!

Cute Clothes for Walking

Hi Ladies,
Two weeks in my new city has made it abundantly clear that I need some good shoes for walking! I live within a mile of great shopping and eating, but terrible parking. Also, many places are about a half a mile away, which makes me feel really guilty to drive to, and my flip flops aren't cutting it. Firstly, it's kinda cold here and secondly my heels are killing me! So, I've decided to see if I can rock the cute, bright running-shoes-with-chic-clothes-look that I've been seeing for a while. :)

Here are my inspiration photos: (I've pinned a lot more here.)

Here are some of the cute running shoes that I looked at this weekend. I bought the bottom, right pair.


I also bought a bunch of these Zella Live-in capris at Nordstrom. They are really comfortable and slimming. (I would size down though.)
 Any ideas? What is your comfortable, walking outfit?

Take Care!

Black & White Stripe Maxi Dress

Hi Ladies,
I want to share one of the cool things I found out when I became a blogger...that is how many of my friends have creative side projects too! One of my old classmates has a mommy blog and one of my closest friends in high school has her own Etsy shop! It was really cool to find out...I don't remember her being into jewelry, just studying all the time, but there you go. :) Therefore, I want to introduce Quinana from Postively U.

*Alterations Note:
I don't have before and after pictures, but I raised the waist on this dress. I strongly recommend this if you find a misses knit dress that you love. If it doesn't have a zipper, then it's easy for the tailor. Plus, since most dresses are too long on petites, raising the waist will automatically shorten the length by that amount.
