The Dress I won and the Glasses I bought!

Sorry it has taken so long to post this. I had downloaded the pictures onto Chad's laptop, and he is always gone, so I never got a chance to post. Plus my camera batteries are dead so I couldn't download the pictures onto my cpu. Enough excuses Here she is:




I haven't worn it yet. I've put it on a few times but It doesn't look very good with a Cardigan and it has been too cold to wear by itself, but when I wear it I'll be sure to take pictures.

I ordered some glasses online. Crazy huh? I needed some new glasses so bad, but didn't want to spend the $200 to get some. My friend Amy Greene told me about this website where you can buy glasses for $8.95! It is www.zennioptical.com. I am aware that buying glasses without trying them on is a little risky..but for $8.95..it's worth the risk. I ordered a black pair and a brown pair. All you need is your prescription. You can just call your doctor and ask.


I thought they looked pretty good. Pardon the no makeup and crazy hair.

Check it-Vintage

Designmom featured these clothes a while ago, unfortunately the website is no longer available, which is a shame because all the clothes on the site were ADORABLE! I think I might try to make the little jumper dress. We'll see though.






What do you think about these high waisted swim suits? Me and my sister Brittany saw them on Anthropologie, when she was here visiting. We both agreed that if we wore two piece swimsuits, they would be great for covering up those stretch marks on our bellies from having babies.




And this one piece?

I also liked THIS one and THIS one.
Flash from the past right? It's crazy how old things become new..Love it.





I saw this website on my friend Rebekah's blog, she showed an apron that held crayons, so I clicked on the site, and of course I had to click on the little girl dresses. We all know I'm a sucker for little girl's clothes. Aren't these cute? They're a little pricey though..

I also saw this

And...

I want one for myself.

I WON!!!

Thanks everyone for your help! I'm so excited because I never win anything! WOOHOO! Here are the other two clothing mashups I made for the contest..but then I found out you could only do one..I thought it was one per article of clothing.

She gave us the headband and told us to create an outfit around it


I couldn't decide between the boots and the cardigan which one do you like the first or second?



I've never worn animal print, but I thought this was cute...She gave us the dress and we had to create an outfit around it.
