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.

Easy Casual
Uh oh! I dropped my camera. Thank goodness I have a warranty....except its going to take 2 to 4 weeks to get it back! I have to leave for Indianapolis for the new job before then, so it looks like I'm buying a back up. It was not my good DSLR thankfully, but my Nikon coolpix which goes everywhere with me. I think I'll make a trip to best buy tomorrow and be back to posting outfits in a day or two.
In the meantime...this is a very close facsimile of the outfit I wore today; denim skinnies, a white button down, coral cardigan and accessories. The necklace is the only thing that doesn't represent a piece that I wore, but I did wear one with the same colors as this one.
I've been trying out more casual looks a couple times a week; this is something I'm not in the habit of doing, but since I found skinnies that work I'm having fun with it! The right skinnies feel a bit more dressed up to me than boot cut.
Speaking of 'boot cut', I really can't wait to get my camera back so I can share my gorgeous, funky new cowboy boots with you. I plan to wear them with skirts and to have them for the next ten years...next post! A little teaser....they are inspired by boots I saw Nancy Wilson of band Heart wearing 20 years ago!

A Capsule for out of town training
I'll be out of town for training for several weeks for my new job in May. I've compiled this capsule of pieces to take with me. The dress code is business professional for the first day and business casual for the rest of the week. I think this will cover it all, including activities after the training. I'll be choosing items from my own wardrobe that are very close to these pieces. The major difference will be that 90% of mine have been thrifted!
