Outfit Post: Atomic

Oh, hey, it's me, Amanda! It's been a while since I've done an outfit post, since we spent a week at the beach (no matter how hard I try, I don't feel like I ever look very cute because my clothing options are limited and I'm all sandy or sweaty) and then I had a little case of the flu and, to be honest, I'm just not feeling fashion these days. I'm still struggling with my curves. Still not thrilled with this new body of mine and still figuring out how to dress it so that I feel good. 1950s dresses are just the ticket (I adore the print on this one!).

outfit details:  dress-vintage via Etsy, necklace-vintage, belt-vintage, sandals-thrifted

We're excited to be heading up to PA to visit the fam for the weekend! Jayme and I have some great stuff planned for the blog/shop. Let me just say that there are way too many things packed up in the car for a simple three-day weekend. Of course, those things also include some birthday presents for my pretty sister who will be turning the big 2-9 in a few weeks! (shhhhhhhh....) Can't wait to share photos of the trip on the blog next week, but most of all, can't wait to be up north with my family, snuggling my niece, eating my mom's homecooked food, and relaxing.

 xo,
Amanda

  1. The curves look great on you! I really like your dress and your sandals.

    I have not been to a beach this summer. So, so sad. Ugh. Also, heading to Philly for a day trip on Saturday.

    Hope you feel much better before your PA trip. :o)

    1. Mandy, thank you so much! I know that if I get dressed in something I love (instead of wearing my slobby clothes to work at home) I feel much better! I do love curves and have never been skinny, but since having a baby, my curves are in differently places, so I am figuring out how to dress them!
