Sundress Week: Day 2- Creative Clips and Lots of Friends
Apr 29, 2009
Hi all! I know this is a little late, but here are some photos from yesterday!
As you all know, I'm very, very petite. Actually, Burlington Coat Factory has a name for people my size (no, it's not midget): demi-petite. Ok, so I'm demi-petite, and more often than not, I have trouble with poorly fitting dress straps. While I typically buy things with adjustable straps, I often have to use safety pins to keep from showing off too much cleavage. Although safety pins are effective, they're not particularly pretty.
But yesterday, I had a brilliant idea: Why not use a fun hair clip to keep my dress on? This particular clip is etched with tiny flowers and I think it looks really cute with this purple and pink dress from Loehmann's aka my happy place.
Look how cute! Rach and Riki ran into each other at Hillel and decided to take a photo for you! I love the bright pink of Rachel L's sundress. You can't see, but she's wearing two really pretty bangles- one in teal and one in yellow. I also love Riki's dress. Hmm...look's eerily similar to something I own. Oh wait...
I realize we're not all actually wearing sundresses, but look how well we match! How fun is Marla's tie-dye t? I just love it!
Finally, check out That Short Chick, another demi-petite girl. She looks awsesome! I'm so glad she emailed me this photo.

that's a great idea! ill-fitting straps and bustlines are the bane of my shopping experiences.
and I didn't know about the 'demi-petite' section in BCF! I may have to go in one those stores one of these days.
Dudette, you have no idea how much I want to don a sundress and send you pictures. This weekend is supposed to be nicer. Can I sneak it in then?
Of course!
by the way, LOVE your sundress!
Dude, I wish I could ever be referred to as demi-petite. I'd certainly done a hairclip on my dress if that's a,ong the biggest hardships! :)
Cute dress pics! Too cold for one here today...
