When I added this dress to my closet on GwynnieBee.com I had no idea that it would be this rad. I didn’t expand the image, and it honestly just looked like a black and white funky striped body-con, so imagine my surprise when I got it in the mail and it looked like a damn magic eye poster. I’m obsessed.
I get really confused by body-con dresses, and patterns, and anything outside of the simple a-line dresses or jeans and t-shirts that I usually wear. There’s something about a body-con dress that makes me think it will never fit my kind of earthy hippy vibes. But look. Look at me wearing plus size clothing that I’m not used to! I put on some little booties, and wore my hair all down and curly, and put on a little extra blush. Viola! I am wearing a body con and feeling like I’m actually reflecting my style. I did it, and I feel real real good about it.
I love that having my online closet on GwynnieBee has helped me jump outside of my comfort zone and find new plus size clothing. You can see more of the outfits I got this month, and hear more about my experience in the video below!

I haven't worn a bodycon dress since 2012 because of the exact fears you mentioned. You rock and I'm definitely going to try it. We have the same body type and I can't tell you how much my life has changed since finding this blog months ago. I am no longer piling up the pounds cos I stopped yoyo dieting. I'm just living and loving it. Best feeling ever?

I still cannot get over how much I love that first bodycon dress, and the blue one on you, too! I'm trying to save $ right now, but def considering a subscription to Gwynnie Bee once I figure out my career stuff in the next couple months - you've sold me!
