I recently booked my plane tickets for solo-traveling Europe for a month and I'm absolutely petrified with fear and excitement and terror and have you seen the movie Taken? But I walked into our local coffee shop alone yesterday and tried to journal a bit and drink my soy latte but I couldn't because people kept asking me why I was there alone and that one little instance just justified my whole entire trip. Anonymity is rare where I live. Sometimes shit gets old in your tiny midwest town and and you have to leave now otherwise you may never have the nerve to again. I would make a post featuring my mum for mother's day, but unfortunately, she hates photos and the interweb- so instead, I will show off one of my favorite dresses to date! This is the 'Traveling Cupcake Truck' dress from ModCloth! How appropriate is the name of this cute little frock? That's the goal of this trip- to look like a cupcake traveler rather than a muffin tourist. Fit and flare dresses are my go-to silhouette; it's such a classic cut, and flattering on nearly every shape. (Not to mention 'fit and flare' is code for twirly) The removable strap on this dress in particular adds a bit of versatility as well as a vintage 50s edge. I wore this outfit out of town this week and received so many compliments! Nobody can hate a pink polka dotted twirly dress, I suppose. I would hate to take away from the essence of this lovely dress by over-accessorizing, so I simply paired it with my fav white pointed heels and a matching clutch. There are literally so many places I could see myself wearing this dress- brunch with my best friend, a dinner date, disney world. Youthful sophistication at its finest.
