Dresses are the hottest style this summer and I admit I’m wanting one myself. However, my figure is made for separates as I’ve discovered while shopping for a dress. Except for a tailored shift (which I find a little formal) I have yet to try on a dress that doesn’t make me look like a watermelon. Blame it on my genes, but I have no waist so little nipped-in styles are terrible on me. Shirt dresses make me look like a blob so they’re out too. I’d like to find a vintage shift in some weird, psychedelic pattern but all the ones I’ve found are much too small. I’ll keep trying, but in the meantime I’ve dragged out all my skirts and am enjoying them with my t-shirts. What are you shopping for this summer?
Pretty Pretty Bang Bang 
This summer I’m shopping for empire waisted anything that hides the post partum belly. Oh and little girl’s clothes that aren’t all pink and purple! You wouldn’t believe how hard it is to find something blue that doesn’t have truck or fire engine on it! I hear ya on the dress thing – never looked good in dresses – I attribute it to my formerly flat chest and wide hips. Ciao!
