I feel like a circus character in this getup...like an edward gorey circus character, maybe.

also can my legs PLEASE stop being so long for every dress that I think looks like a dress, then I order it and it is practically a shirt?? guuhh. I have so many forced tunics that would be dresses on normal people that confine me to wearing leggings and pants underneath instead of tights for the sake of covering up enough. sometimes I feel like a barrel monkey and wish I could cut about four inches off of my legs and arms. GROSS!?! well, I did mention edward gorey...

dress: modcloth
leggings: h&m
boots: vintage
hai clip: made it

  2. You think this dress is too short? Wow, I think it looks great. And the hair clip is super fun! :)

  3. I do not think it is your legs that are too long. I think you are buying dresses that are too short for modesty sake. I don't think anyone dressing modestly would be able to wear that dress without leggings...

    1. maybe I wan't clear enough- the situation isn't that I go shopping and buy short dresses, it's that sometimes I shop online, see a photo with the dress on a model, hitting about 2 inches above the knee, and then when I get it in the mail it hits me mid thigh....at which point I already paid for it and decide to make it work as a tunic instead of a dress...that's all I meant to say.

  9. Bummer about the legs....I'll take them! j/k . I actually have the same problem...I have to wear tights, which here in TX, are about to go out the window unless I want to sweat all day. Came across your blog via CM. Take care!
