Texas Hates Spanx!





I probably should have worn my Spanx with this skirt dress but it was too hot.
So there.
The dress is really a full skirt with layers of fabric so wearing anything else was just out of the question.
And guess what.
I'm okay with it.
Another day, I might care.
Just not today.
The world still goes round.
I did alot of twirling in the skirt though.
That's always okay.

Jessica Simpson Sandals
Mother In Law's Vintage Handbag

P.S...I plan to drop in at the Houston chapter of the  "I <3 Thrifting" Party hosted by Mac Styles via Mr. Goodwill Hunting. Come out and say hi...I'll be the girl wearing no spanx, fanning myself and probably pouring water on my head like the girl in Flashdance (pic below) to keep cool.

Yep...that's about right:)

Lovely! I think if you twirl all day, you wont need spanx.
I wore some yesterday because my dress was kinda see-through, and I don't recommend it! Sticky. Bad!

You know how sometimes you read something out of the corner of your eye and you think it says something it doesn't. That's what I saw in the blog feed. God hates Spanx. And I was like AMEN! They are a necessary evil, like cravings for sweets.

Traci Marie Wolf said...

BTW You look lovely as always.

You look great, I don't think any Spanx were needed. it's too hot in the summer for extra. lol

And that visual of you pouring water on yourself is hilarious, ESPECIALLY because we are eye to eye on that. Matter of fact, I wish I had some water to pour on myself now as I am under the dryer!!! Aye dios mio.

OMWord, your sunshades are off the hook! (OMWord, who still says 'off the hook', though?)

FashionAddict said...

Fabulous outfit to beat the heat. And, yeah, if I ever wear spanx, it is in the dead of winter. It just wasn't made for the summer!

Unknown said...
