On a recent visit to T.J. Maxx I purchased a gorgeous cobalt dress and burgundy shoes. This dress is not exactly like mine, but it's a gorgeous dress and I am going to use it to show you how I might style my dress.I intend to wear my dress in October to the evening professional performances at the Harvest Moon Ballroom Comp I will be participating in. I'll pair it with gold accessories and my pretty new burgundy heels. I'm looking forward to wearing this dress and I don't know if I can wait until October!
I have curves. I've struggled to dress my body to flatter my pear shape. I've finally learned to work with my dangerous curves. I finally accept that this is MY shape; I've made peace with my body. I encourage other pear shaped ladies to accept and love their shape; it is a beautiful, classic womanly shape. I'm also a ballroom dance lover. I'll share what I've learned about dressing for dance, competition, ballroom glitter, sparkle and glamour.
So pretty! I like the gold accents.
ReplyDeleteI think I could wear my cobalt dress with both gold and silver, but I think I like the gold best.
DeleteOh that's stunning colour! Is it expensive?

Great inspiration! That necklace is stunning!
ReplyDeleteIt's really a cool necklace isn't it? I don't have one like it...but I do love it.
DeleteI love that colour it looks fabulous all year round. Great styling.
ReplyDeleteThank you...I can't wait to break out my dress and I may not wait until the October comp....one month away.
DeleteOh it is gorgeous! The burgundy heels are going to look perfect with it :)
ReplyDeleteI think the burgundy will look great too. I'm impatient to wear it.
DeleteGorgeous color and shape! I really like those burgundy heels too - I think you could wear those a lot.
ReplyDeleteI was shopping with a friend when I purchased the shoes..she said I was too old for such sexy shoes. That pushed me over the edge to make the purchase!!!
DeleteWhat? Your friend said you are 'too old' for those shoes ... what? Eeek, wonder what she's say about my shoes. I'm guessing she's a litte conservative?!
ReplyDeleteLove the dress and that colour will look fabulous on you ... looking forward to seeing it on you.
My friend is quite conservative; that's probably why I went in the opposite direction of her advice!
