Oh, the necessary, but oh so elusive, white dress. Ask any stylish woman and she will tell you that a LWD (little white dress) is just as important as having a LBD (little black dress) in her closet. I have had many white dresses over the years, but none that I liked quite as much as this lace dress from Chicwish!
I often have my friends ask me about Chicwish after they have seen it on my blog, “can I trust them? Are they just another one of those scam foreign clothing sites? Do the sizes run small?” The answer is yes, you can trust them, no they aren’t a scam, and the sizing actually runs true to size. I normally buy a size large in dresses to accommodate my big toosh. This time around, I ordered this white lace dress in an XL for fear that it would be small. It ended up being too big around my waist on me! The company definitely has their clothing run TTS (true to size) as far as American sizing goes! Their entire site is filled with chic, boho, and girly styles you can wear to work or out and about.
As you know, Spencer and I have moved into a new apartment! This was actually a friend’s house as we were trying to go through the transition. However, they have killer decorating style! I love the plant and the desk in their little space. The macrame and the felt letter board are both in our new apartment; I am sure you will see them with the new home reveal!

July 17, 2017I love letter boards for the same reason! I can never commit to one quote so it's perfect. I recently saw someone put "Ya'll gonna make me lose my mind. Up in here, up in here" in their kiddos room and I thought that was hilarious and oh so applicable.

July 17, 2017I love your dress. It looks so good on you. And I agree on needing one.
What a neat giveaway!! I haven't counted out the words to see if it would fit but if so I would put:
People will forget all the details of what happened, but they will NEVER forget how you made them feel.
Thanks so much.

July 18, 2017I have about a million quotes I'd love to switch out on it. I'd probably start with 'Whip it. Whip it good' and put it in my kitchen.
