Description

i just love, love, love the coffee date dress! i have a pretty short waist, and felt self-conscious about letting my belly just sit there so exposed, so i used a scarf as a belt. i’m working on getting over the belly-consciousness, bear with me.

next time, i’d make the dress below the knee and definitely not from knit (gotta keep practicing zippers though). it’s comfy, but not the most flattering material for my body type. but in the meantime, i will rock the hell out of this dress!

    You look great in this, and doesn’t look like you have a belly at all! Love the addition of the scarf, very nice colour combo, simple and chic. May have to check out this pattern myself
