Love these together! Such a nice pop of color!

Have you been finding yourself wearing more dresses vs skirts? At one time earlier in this thread you said a family member (mother?) suggested dresses. I was just wondering if you are finding you like one over the other?

Yes, I am wearing more dresses right now. Basically the 4 I posted, with a skirt on Friday.

I’m finding dresses a lot easier to deal with, no worrying about mix and matching.

But I only have dresses for summer. Winter I would need to find winter dresses (slightly warmer versions of what I wear now) or go back to my skirts.

But since I wear longer dresses that aren’t as full as some of my skirts, it’s helped slim me down a little bit. I’ll take all the help I can get. [emoji23]

I’m sure you look lovely! Lovely mind, lovely body!
I don’t think your shopping has gone overboard, I’m proud of you and how you still manage, good job!

Found a dressy silk dress!

@girleuro, it’s hand-washable silk!

I wanted a cute silk dress for my yearly birthday tea. I could wear something I already have, but oh well!

It’s from the real real, so it was an inexpensive find and didn’t break the budget at all.

I’m fuller than the mannequin, but the dress flatters my shape! So it’s a definite keeper, my favorite color, and comfy.

Better yet, no dry cleaning!

1. Tiffany & Co Grove Exclusive : Love Always heart charm
