It's a lovely sunny day in the San Juans today (besides the wind) so I decided to brave the world in a short dress today. I have a habit of dressing inappropriately for the given weather conditions (I wear flip flops literally every single day) so a little chill doesn't bother me. I've been itching to wear this silver dress I picked up at a local consignment shop, Second Act, about four months ago. Finally the weathers nice enough that I can wear it without tights to compliment my hardly noticeable (but still there!) tan. I decided to include a piece-by-piece photo collection again as well for the same reason as I expressed in the previous post. Not all the pieces are exactly what I'm wearing, but I tried to find similar ones.

This (for me, at least) is an easy, wearable style. Despite heels always being tricky to totter around in. I like to keep my outfits very fun, youthful, and sexy. I'm taking advantage of the fact that I'm still young and get away with neon, barely-there hemlines, and sky-high heels :) Something that's always irked me about fashion is that because of many trends these days, its hard to find a balance between being fashion forward but retaining your femininity and sex appeal. I know these are not necessarily important aspects to every person's style, but it is to mine. So many styles now have an almost androgenous element to them, that I feel ridiculous trying to mask my curves in little boy's clothes. I try to find pieces and looks that excite me, and I still feel flashy or zany wearing, but that compliment what mother nature gave me.
