I know I've been m.i.a for a while but all this moving and new work has been a challenging schedule adjustment for me. I barely have time to think, let alone blog. Anyhoo, I thought I'd mark my return with a WhatWentWrong since I've been away for so long. And if we're going to laugh at bad fashion, we may as well laugh at someone who can take the jokes - ME!
I promise you, when I put this dress on I thought I was really stylin'. My sister gave me this dress because she's tall and it was a little too short on her long, lean legs. (Yeah, I know. I don't have any sympathy for her either.) I knew this paper bag shape on my body type would require a belt to create a waist. But now looking at the pics, it looks like I chose the wrong belt. And you can't even see my sparkly pink tank underneath so I look like a mass of brown sack!
The side view makes me look like I have a pot belly. And with the backside sticking out too, I'm thinking this was so not a good look.
The correction: I believe a thinner belt would be more suitable. If that doesn't work, I may have to pass this cute little dress on to someone who would look good wearing it. I'll be sure to keep you posted.
Have you ever worn something that you thought was a great idea at the time, only discover later that you really did look a hot mess?
