Church Lady: Navy Blue + Dressember

This month I have committed to a very special fundraising campaign called Dressember. Participants agree to wear a dress every day in December to bring awareness to and fund raise toward the restoration of dignity for women who have been used and abused, across the globe.

My love of dresses and my love of sewing and building dresses combined with my humanitarian heart and compassion for women who are hurting, seemed like the natural match to join the dressember campaign myself. I do own quite a collection of dresses but most of them are actually not practical for every day wear. Add to that, it's been a cool December...I've invested in quite a few pair of tights.

I borrowed this dress from my daughter. I normally avoid this shapeless shift style. Honestly, I think it's not very flattering on me...but whatever. I have very little here at my dad's house since the move so...my shoe selection is limited but I did make a quick stop to at least have a 'heel' of some sort to wear.  

Jewelry has also been minimal. Surprisingly, this campaign and the move has shifted my perspective a bit. I thought I was already letting so much go but even the little I have brought with me--I am realizing I can still do with less. Initially and over all, I have stuck with mainly two dresses except on Sunday's for church. It's been fairly easy.

As you can see, the outfit is minimal over all. I am really loving the tights which enables to me to wear dresses that would normally be too short for me to enjoy. I still love my flower clips in the hair though!

Church Lady: Blue Sheer + Dressember

We've moved and it's Dressember.

The move means random items are missing, lost and unable to be located. It also means that many more items are in transit. Lastly, it means that many more items can not be taken with us, thus the shoes.

I have little space to take everything. I've been wearing my favorite ruby red slippers, I mean my red Vans. They go well enough with most dresses.

Dressember, is a fundraising campaign that supports the right to dignity for women everywhere. By participating, I wear a dress every day in December, hoping to bring awareness, have the conversations in creative ways that involve 31 days of dress wearing.

Right up my alley, I'd say.

Blue sheer over dress with a bit of sparkle. It has a high neck and requires a slip or...duh...see-through! I'm not a fan of showing the goods, if you know what I mean. Luckily I brought this white sweater along with me on the move...Not sure why I didn't realize I might need want more than just 2 pairs of shoes.

Vintage embroidered floral purse--it's become my staple. Even more so with the move--see paragraph above about the shoes. A belt is a must have with this dress.

A little disheveled maybe but hey--the dress matches my hair!

Wear a dress, change the world!
Have a great week. 

Church Lady: Crochet Pink Scar + Dressember

Two children are sold into slavery every 60 seconds! 

I am participating in Dressember this month, committing to wear a dress every day of December to bring awareness and fundraise toward restoration for women who have been oppressed, primarily via human trafficking.

I mainly wear the two same dresses for every day wear and it's very comfortable.

This is a plain black tank dress. I wore a sheer lace shirt over. It's getting cooler and a scarf was in order. This one looks like a giant pink cobra around my neck in this picture. Haha.

Hand me down flats, flower in my hair...Voila!

Easy Peasy Sunday morning?
