Dress Dare Supplies

Have you noticed that the dress and skirt hemlines are much shorter this season?  I have been having trouble finding attractive skirts to suit my active lifestyle and appreciation for fashion.

I recently came across Vintage Hem, a website that sells cute modern-day petticoats.  I am considering adding one of these to my wardrobe!  This seems like an adorable and fashionable solution to help make trendy skirts more feminine and modest.  I bet they would be great for pregnancy too, when your hemline in front starts elevating inches above the back.

Do you have any favorite feminine and modest fashion finds??

A Leg Up on Fashion

I've never been against leggings-- just on the fence about whether or not we should bring back anything that reminds us of 80's fashions. I have apparently chosen a side however, because I now own a pair.

Why this change of heart? I began to admire the practicality of them. On most days, I tend to grab my pair of jeans rather than a skirt, mainly because I feel more comfortable and less restricted in them. With leggings however, you easily play on the floor with your baby in a skirt or dress, without worrying about being immodest. They also come in handy during cool nights, cold weather... or when you simply forget to shave. Not to mention, they also make great work-out clothes.

So there you have it: just a few reasons to sport some not-so-1980's leggings.
