Hey everyone! Hope your week is going well. Friday is almost here! I’m so excited that I’m going to Berea College’s 2015 Homecoming celebration. It always feels good to come home. I’ve been looking for cheap pieces that would serve as a elegant homecoming outfit. Money is always on my mind. Katie is picking me up and escorting me to Berea. I’m so happy to spend the weekend with such an awesome person. Since we are both covering gas, the room, and food, I wanted to maintain a budget. I headed to Forever 21 and Charlotte Russe to see what fab things I could find.
This was so tight. Yes, I am as uncomfortable as I look.
I was hoping my body would look good, like a cold glass of milk. Instead, I looked like hot cottage cheese. Epic Fail. My arms were screaming for release! 3x and I’m still struggling!
This was fierce but too long for my short frame. I felt regal in this.
This turtle neck dress gave me Kim K. Still, It wasn’t glamorous enough for homecoming.
I’ve blogged this $15.90 dress before and it’s still fly! All curves and belly, no girdle. I’ll get it one day. Just not for homecoming.
I bought the skirt in 3x $17.90 but not the crop top.
I don’t know how to style this. My breasts And belly are too big for this. No, no, no! The concept is sensual and feminine. The execution is not friendly to many plus shapes and frames.
This dress is cute. It can be dressed up or down. Not bad for 17.90. I’ll go back and get it.
I’d like this too with a poofier skirt. Hindsight is 20/20. This top wasn’t as bad as I thought it was. Sometimes when I’m trying things on, I get in a funk and assume that everything looks terrible.
This 3x $15.00 crop top was cute! Just not homecoming worthy.
For another occasion, I might give this dress a chance, for this one, I’m passing.
