Fashion Remix

Recently I have become inspired to try and come up with something other than the typical shorts and t-shirt combo I work so well. In keeping with my new found love (dresses!) I have been going through my pre-baby wardrobe to see what I can rework into something new. Luckily, I found quite a few pieces I could use differently in my new obsession. 

 






I remember as a kid going through my mother's closet and trying on all of the fun dresses and skirts she had. I remember thinking, "I can't imagine when I will feel comfortable wearing dresses." As I got older I wore them on special occasion (dances, gradutation, etc.) but never just out and about. That is until I got pregnant, you couldn't put me in a pair of pants for all the money in the world. Being pregnant in Miami, ruled out any garment that covered my legs and I was lucky enough empire waists were back in style and I was able to find a bunch of cute, fun, and breezy dresses.

Since then, I have returned to my comfy shirts and t's (how else am I supposed to hide the post-baby tire I acquired?!?) But having become inspired after purchasing my first fit-and-flare dress, I have now started going through my closet for more workable garments (who needs to buy when you can just recycle:) (Oh and I figured out how to use the frame app on my phone :)
