I know, I know, i have been neglectful to my lovely dress blog. I honestly have not been into sewing lately. I have been really working on my photography, and just enjoying being at home. If you don’t know, I have fibromyalgia, so daily activities are hard as most of my time I am in pain, or just tired. But, I do have good news….
We are going to DISNEY WORLD! Yes, it’s our second trip, commemorating our “fake wedding” in 2007, our honeymoon from our real wedding which was in 2009, and just a vacation that is extremely needed. The trip is June 23-June 30, with my 23rd birthday being on June 24! We are having dinner with Cinderella and the Princesses in the castle on my birthday.
So my projects, well my main project so far is to work on my 50’s style sundresses. I have learned from our last trip to Disney World that clothing is a big factor in tolerating the heat/humidity that is Florida. Last time, I had one dress, and the rest of the time I had capris and shirts, and to be honest I was very uncomfortable. Not only was I uncomfortable because of the heat, I felt that I looked all blob like. I mean, yes I am a big girl, but still, some shots were not flattering.
My fascination with 50’s style dresses is that it looks great on any figure, and is comfortable. And since all of the dresses are the same shape, all I have to do is lay the dresses on top of eachother, fold and roll and pack. I’ll probably take two pairs of shorts, and like 4 shirts just in case. It is imperative that you change your outfit towards the early evening, since you spent all day sweating!
Yay! I am so excited for Disney!
Here is my polka dot dress that I completed and love.
