Fat Ladies Shouldn’t Wear Horizontal Stripes….
….and other ridiculousness…
I ADORE this dress. I love me a swing dress. And I Love STRIPES. The horizontal stripes don’t make me look fat. *I* make me look fat!
Stupid fat rules.
Another convo I just had in an online forum was about not buying button-down items that don’t button-up! I disagree. I have button-down items that I like just as layering pieces – that show the item underneath, or even a lightweight jacket like this one. Buttoning is just not really in my styling vocabulary, it doesn’t work for my body as-is and I’m okay with that.
I guess those are all the “rules” that I’m breaking in this outfit…I’m sure I’ll break tomorrow. And that’s okay!
What rules do *you* like to break??
What I’m Wearing:
- Karen Kane stripe “Maggie” trapeze dress via Gwynnie Bee
- Who What Wear distressed denim jacket from Target

You little rebel rule breaker! You know my thoughts on this. To hell with the “rules”…you look fabulous and you can tell from your beautiful smile that you feel fabulous! And I’m like you, I rarely button, I prefer to use button-y items as layering pieces.

Break those rules that we didn’t have any say in making! This is a really nice dress on you. I love hearing your sassy prose!

Yeah, baby! Breaking the rules feels good!
I do love this style of dress – so easy, nothing feels tight, there’s nothing to adjust, it just glides easily over my body like water, ahhhh 🙂 (okay, easy, Bettye!)
