OOTD: The Dress

You scope out the plus size dress section, and patiently pull each item out, eyes going straight to the size on the tag. As you look at the selection, you sigh and wonder why you keep shopping here. Everything in your size is something horrifyingly unflattering or matronly.

And then you pull out the dress.

It says “free size” but it's amazingly wide in the chest and flowy. It looks a little bit on the short side, which is good because you're short. And it has beautiful tie-dye colors, and over that, lovely detailed embroidery.

And it's soft. Soft as suede. The tag says it is 100 percent rayon, but the fabric is woven. The tag also says that it was made in India.

You rush to the fitting room to try it on and it fits you like a glove. You glow at your reflection, feeling cute and chic. You can't stop looking at yourself in the mirror and running your hands over the fabric.

This sounds like a dream. Honestly I sort of remember it like a dream. But it really happened, and the proof is here in the pictures.

I am over the moon with this dress that I found at Goodwill. It is so unique, and so ME! I tend to love all things girly and classic, while at the same time keeping things relaxed with a sort of hippie vibe. This dress seems to reflect those different sides of me so perfectly. It also didn't hurt that it only cost $4!

Do you have one or two favorite clothing items that you feel really express who you are? I'd love to see or hear about them!

Thanks for reading,
