Fashion? Psh. What do I know about fashion? Here's one thing I do know - skinny jeans are IN and I look like a woman who birthed a dozen kids in them. Uh, I just reread that, and that came out sounding way wrong. You know what I meant. I think. Okay, can we get on with this post? Can you tell talking about fashion makes me nervous? So I found this A.Dor.Able strapless dress at a garage sale. Yes, more than likely if it didn't come from a 90% off clearance rack and I'm wearing it, then it came from a garage sale. The dress had a fun print, but most importantly had pockets and looked like it would hide lots of bodily imperfections! Baggy hides a multitude of sins!! However, wearing it for my boy's birthday party seemed like a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen. And it was hot. I had nothing to wear over top. So I put a ribbed tank underneath, strapped a vintage goodwill belt around it, and it had a whole new modest, comfortable, and "wardrobe malfunction free" dress! Most of us have one (or five, since they go on sale for about $2 at the end of every summer and we can't resist the good deal) in the closet - pull it out and give it a new look! It will be the perfect look for your date to McDonald's tonight.

| So I realize a turquoise tank would have looked much better. And I had one on at first. But the neck line went lower than the dress, and it just twasn't right. |

You're looking good. I like modest! And the belt just makes the outfit.
