question about dresses
I noticed a lot of the girls at brunch last weekend were wearing cute casual dresses. I was trying to think of the last time I wore a dress and can't remember. Maybe a year ago? So I was wondering...
How often do you ladies wear dresses? Just to dress up? To work? As a casual daily outfit?
Everyone looked so cute, but to me dresses have always felt formal so I feel awkward when I put them on. I do wear skirts occasionally to work, but not in a casual setting. Maybe I need to loosen up and try new things...
Re: question about dresses
I love wearing dresses, especially in the spring/summer. I probably wear them 3-4x week, especially now that I'm pregnant.
I get most of them at Old Navy and Target, they're pretty inexpensive. I like how you can dress them up or down with shoes and jewelry.
Ditto (minus the pregnant part).

If you need a place to start, I have and love both of these because I can wear regular bras with them:
Dress 1
Dress 2
Also I wear this under everything I wear. Everything, but especially dresses. I have a stockpile of them and wear them everyday to keep things smooth.
I'm not sure what shape I am. Definitely not pear since I have a lot going on up top... but I have a lot of junk in the trunk too. So maybe apple? And I still wear and love dresses. I think the right dress is flattering on everyone.
Agreed. It's all about the cut. I do enjoy that a good dress takes focus off of my hip/butt area though, so I guess that would put me more in the "pear" camp.

At least once a week. To be perfectly honest, I usually were loose fitting dresses when I don't have any clean shorts that actually fit me. They allow for expansion of the belleh.
How is it that my BABY is going to be 3?

OK, I will go to Target and try some of these. Promise.
I guess I agree with having to find the right dress with the right cut. If I'm not careful, I just end up looking pregnant in most dresses.
My Ovulation Chart
I am not a dress person. We have a friend that jokes that he's never once seen my legs and I've known him for almost 5 years now. My legs are so white that I don't like to wear anything that shows them. That being said, I do wear one to work when I don't have any clean work pants- maybe twice a month or so.
Now that I'm pregnant, that is starting to change. I only own 1 pair of jeans that fit me right now and I can't button any of my work pants, so I am starting to wear dresses more. It is rare that I will put one on not for work though.
I like the maxi dresses because they cover my legs, so I am on the lookout for more of those.

My thoughts exactly! I wear dresses whenever and where ever I can. Its such a quick and easy complete ensemble. I love to dress it up with some accessories and heels or go casual with sandals/ flip flops.
