Today marks the 3rd anniversary of my blog!
It's hard to believe I've been doing this for three years! My little labor of love has connected me to so many amazing people who I otherwise wouldn't have had the opportunity to know. It's given me a platform to share my love of fashion with like-minded individuals, and it has connected me with some amazing brands.
All in all, I've had so much fun blogging over the last three years, so I figured why not celebrate in style!
I decided to go with a fancy dress from +ELOQUII gifted to me by William of Sophisticated Curves. I connected with William and Sophisticated Curves (an amazing resource for plus-size news and fashion) through my experience blogging, so wearing this dress for my blogiversary only seemed fitting.
Given that it's almost August, it has been too hot to wear a velvet dress. Because of this, I hadn't gotten it hemmed yet. You may notice that there is a seam past the knee that leads into the trumpet hem. To get the proper placement for the trumpet, I'll be moving this seam up.
Even though I haven't yet had a chance to get it hemmed, I thought the extra length created a cool train, so I decided to go with it. It's part Old Hollywood glam, part Morticia Addams. Pretty good hybrid, if you ask me!
The traditional gift for the third anniversary is wood, and I thought it would be cool to do a woodsy scene as a backdrop to my blog photos. Due to the hectic wedding planning, I had to settle for a tree in my backyard, but it gave me a little of the vibe I wanted.
Thanks again for reading my blog and helping me celebrate three years! I wouldn't be here without you! :-)
