Reston Style: make it work

I bought this dress when Kendi had a Spotted Moth giveaway. No, I didn't win. Instead of saying what I would buy, I commented about what I bought. Guess that's why my inclination is to not enter giveaways. I can't be trusted to just pretend shop! It's something that I have to work on though. I love the idea of giveaways, I would love to win one, and to even do them at some point. But I'll never win if I don't enter. And I can't afford to buy things every time I enter one... I need to earn some self control!

Anyway, they did not have this dress in my size. So I bought it a size up. (Makes sense, right?) And when I tried it on, my sister said it did nothing for me and told me to return it. Other than shopping self control, I suck at mailing things (just ask these girls), so I decided to make it work. And wouldn't you know, I saw my sister and she complimented me on my outfit! It was pretty awesome. Though looking back at the pictures, I think I am going to do some alterations before I wear it again. Live and learn!
