first toe in the water




So, one of the big trends now is mixing patterns... and I have such a problem doing that! So, I decided to put one toe in the water and wear patterned tights with this patterned dress. I think it turned out pretty cute!

I got the dress at a thriftstore and I like it except for the fluttery sleeves. I have broad shoulders and muscular arms (I do hardcore weightlifting), and I feel like sleeves like this broaden my profile too much. Maybe next time I'll pair this with a shrug. I also added a black camisole top under the dress so it wouldn't be so low-cut for church, and that also broadened the look of it.

where is the broadness? I don't see any, silly! I do see some super cool tights, though.
