Mahjong Tiles

Trashy Diva may have just launched their newest collection, Birds of a Feather, but I'm still stuck on a slightly older print that I've come to like a lot. I styled one of the Mahjong print skirts back in the fall, but I had forgotten to order up a size and the skirt didn't get much wear as a result. I decided to try the Annette dress in this print (which just restocked on the Trashy Diva site!), and I'm so glad I did.

I actually ordered a size up from what I've been recently buying at TD in this print. Cotton voile is a fantastic summer fabric because it's so lightweight, but there's virtually no stretch to it whatsoever. Having wiggle/eating room is important to me, so if you're between sizes, I'd personally suggest sticking to the size chart. I'm definitely planning on bringing this dress with me when Ashley and I go down to NOLA later this summer!

This past weekend was a lot of fun. I went to the market, went to a pool party with friends from work, and watched the Tony Awards. But it was also really weird/sad. My entire swimsuit collection is just gone (we've looked everywhere at my apartment and at my parents' house) and I'm pretty upset about it. I spent years collecting really hard-to-find, amazing suits that can't be replaced – literally, since they aren't made anymore – and I'm not really sure what to do now other than be sad. I know they're just clothes in the end and there are far more important things. I'm trying to keep some perspective, but they also meant something to me. I guess I'm going to have to gather up more things to sell so I can afford to get at least a couple of new suits this summer. What else can you do but try to start anew?

  2. WOW. I seriously love this. I've never seen anything like it either, which makes it even more special.

  3. Oh, that's sad about the swimming suits. I think for many bloggers clothing is a bit like a collection. Some people collect stamps, or baseballs with people's autographs or movies... some, like you, collect really cute clothes with fun prints. You keep up with certain brands, and put time and effort into it. I can totally get why you are bummed!

    If it helps cheer you up- know you look fantastic in that dress!

  4. I own this exact TD dress, I do love the print and style of it! I only own one Trashy Diva, because they're a little over my budget unfortunately! Gorgeous photos to! :)
