This is the beginning of a new blog column on Blacksburg Belle, Fashionology. Let’s chat about how much I love fashion….thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much. That’s a lot–I know.
Every once in while, I’ll share one of my favorite outfits with you. I recently purchased this purple dress from Modcloth. I love shopping online at Modcloth, because I’m obsessed with clothes that have a vintage style AND they hardly ever sell anything with real leather. The boots I’m wearing in this picture are completely designed with man-made materials. Holla for animal-friendly boots that fit perfectly!
If you’ve ever flipped through an Anthropologie catalog, you know that most of the time the models look super serious. So, whenever I strike a “looking into the distance” pose, I call it my “Anthropologie look.” During the photo shoot with Mayi in Panama, I would say, “let’s do our Anthropologie look” and we would immediately crack up and then look off into the distance with our lips sorta pursed.
Love the outfit, April…super cute! How is the quality of that dress? I’ve thought about purchasing from ModCoth before but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.
This one is REALLY nice. I thought it would be thinner, cheaper fabric, but it’s actually thick which is what I hoped for. I’ve bought about eight dresses from them and four pairs of shoes/boots. I’ve only returned one dress–loved all the others. The shoes have been much better quality than I thought except for one pair that was super cute but kinda hurts to wear for much longer than an hour or two. I highly recommend them, especially because returns are super easy if you don’t love it.
