Well, I guess Spring started on March 22, 2012, but my Spring style just entered the season due to weather and other issues (that I shall not discuss at this time)! Better late than never, right?! Here is a taste of my Spring style.
I love this dress! This is a tulip cut dress that I purchased around Springtime last year. I love the flowers and the color. This screams Spring to me! I paired this dress with some red flats with ruching detail in the back. I have a pair of natural colored shoes that appear to be a mix of burlap with light colored straps. Since those pair of heels were open-toed and the weather was much cooler today than it has been the last few days, I decided to go with the flats. The important pieces of clothing I am wearing here are my foundation garments underneath. I learned about these wonderful foundation pieces from another wonderful fashionista by the name of Chastity Garner and her inspirational book, The Curvy Girl's Guide to Style! I try to live by the rules of this book and it has been an inspiration to me and my fashion future! Back to my outfit! This dress is beautiful but without those undergarments, it would have been less flattering. Thank goodness for my foundation pieces.
To add a little sass to this outfit, I wore a gold-plated leaf wrist cuff bracelet. There is nothing to add to this statement. It was an excellent statement piece and I love it to pieces!!
Just for fun, I wanted to add my newly acquired Kate Spade sunglasses. This was a fun piece to the outfit, as you can tell, I was ecstatic!
