Pleated Heart

Sister Jane midi dress with pussybow in heart print color block

I know I haven't been blogging as much as I used to but it feels like there's been a huge shift in my life.  My style is different, my daily life is different, my outlook on life feels different too.  We just mourned the loss of our golden retriever, Lucy, as she lost a battle with cancer we didn't even know about.  Everything just feels so far away from the person I used to know so well.  That doesn't mean that I don't welcome this new version of myself.  She's stronger, happier, and more confident than ever.  I know this me doesn't get as much attention as the "pinup" version of myself but I feel much more comfortable in this skin.

That being said, the new me is every bit in love with the UK brand Sister Jane.  It feels so delicate, whimsical, and free.  Since I've banned myself from wearing uncomfortable shapewear, I've been loving a less restricted waistline and have welcomed their shift dresses with open arms.  This color block dress is an absolute dream!  It's funky but feminine and I feel so pretty in it.  I actually own this dress in two color ways, that's how much I love it!

Dress- Sister Jane
Shoes- Old Navy
Sunglasses- c/o Modcloth
Lipstick- c/o Julie Hewett in Biba

This color block midi dress is made from a lush fabric and features a pussy bow neckline, 3/4 sleeves with a button closure on the cuffs, pleated skirt, and a zippered closure in the front.  I range between and small and medium in all Sister Jane styles and I comfortably take a medium in this dress.  I feel like I could probably take a small but I like to be able to move my arms comfortably.  I can wear this dress all day without fussing with it at all.  My only problem with this dress is that it doesn't have pockets.  As someone who likes to wander without a purse, pockets are key!

While I haven't given up all my pinup-style clothing (my closet is still mostly dedicated to my favorite brand: Trashy Diva), I'm really excited to showcase my ever-evolving style with you here.  I'm hoping you'll stick around and enjoy this journey with me!
