Gamiss for Affordable, Trendy Fashion


So let's be real, my body has changed.  I put on the "freshman 15."  But I'm not a freshman...  Adult life gets busy and I made sacrifices to get to where I am in life.  I'm proud of where I've come, but in the process I got totally out of shape.  

I don't want to invest in pricey pieces since I've decided I'm getting my groove back.  Gamiss was nice enough to give me the opportunity to try them out.  

I love rompers and this print caught my eye.  This outfit can be dressed up or down, is light and comfortable and totally does what it claims, helps slim my waist.   

I did, however, have to use fashion tape to keep the top from exposing my goods.  No bigs.  
Plus it gives the illusion that I have legs_for_days!  #legsfordays

Lately I have disliked my stomach.  I had a beautiful, flat tummy until I got diagnosed with PCOS and it feels like overnight it became my problem area.  If you have this issue then flowy tops are your friend!  But pair them with something more fitted on the bottom for a streamline look. 



Sizing for these items was a little confusing.  I ordered the romper in a large, which I'm glad I did because I think it would have been too short in a smaller size.  The tank top is a small and is roomy and comfortable.  I also ordered the Trendy U Neck Sleeveless Printed Women's Maxi Dress in a large, but it was too big and was unflattering.  When ordering I erred on the side of ordering the size corresponding to my biggest measurement, but I think you could get away ordering your standard American size.  

All in all I really liked Gamiss and will definitely order form them again.  There clothes are fashion forward and affordable, which means I can splurge from time to time without feeling guilty.

Little Bright Dress For A Steal


I'm so excited to share this post with you.  Awhile back I found a neon bodycon on pinterest that I fell in love with.  Only problem was that the dress did not go to website where I could purchase it.  So I searched and searched and searched some more and finally gave up on my hopes of rocking it this summer.  

Well one day I stumbled upon a website called SheIn and I found dress after dress that I swooned over.  But the best thing  of all, I found the neon bodycon I had wanted.  And the cost?  $15.99!  I will share that dress and talk about SheIn more in detail at a later time.

So clearly this little bright sheath isn't the dress I was swooning over.  But it was so cute I just couldn't resist it.  And for $17.67, plus 34% off, I decided why not try out a few dresses.  The one thing that made me a tad skeptical is that nobody else had posted a review with a picture of the dress.  What's great about SheIn is that many customers will leave reviews with pictures so you as a customer can see how the dress looks on others.  I would highly encourage you, if you make purchase, to do the same.  

I love the neckline of this dress.  It is structured, but sexy at the same time.  Normally I do not wear dresses that hit above the knee, but I felt that with the depth of neckline this length was most appropriate.  I don't think I would recommend this dress for all work environments as the neckline is quite low and yellow is pretty bright, but if your work is more trendy, fashion forward, and liberal then go for it.  This dress can easily be dressed up with heels or down like I did with embellished sandals.  

Overall this dress fit really well.  I am normally a size small or 4 and probably could have gotten away with a size x-small, but SheIn does not offer this size.

The sandals I'm wearing can be purchased from ShoeDazzle here.
