More Purple Clothes

January 3, 2011 by Mary

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure for details.

Not sure how I feel about this purple shirt (I have so many purple(ish) shirts!). It covers everything well so I feel comfortable in it, but at the same time it’s not one of my favorite mix of patterns. Then again, I got it for free as a hand me down from my mom from someone else, so I can’t complain. I just can’t decide if I actually like it or not, so I keep wearing it waiting for that decision.

    Hi Mary – you look adorable; however, the shirt has to go. WWSCD (what would Stacey & Clinton do? That is my mantra. They would tell you why so here goes…. First it is too long – I know you’re not really tall so any shirt that long makes your legs look way short. The rule is the shirt should stop just above the crotch area to give the illusion of a long leg. Second horizontal stripes across the midsection are never a good idea – they make you look shorternand wider. Last – there is way too much volume in the shirt which also makes you look bigger. If you really love the shirt shorten it a little and wear a fitted jacket or fine gauge cardigan over top to give you shape. Please don’t feel offended – just trying to give some pointers.

      I’m not offended, I knew quite a few of those which is why I couldn’t decide if I liked it or not. Looking shorter and wider doesn’t really bother me. I am short and wide. ;)

      Feel free to give pointers any time! I don’t really have any clue about clothes… mostly I wear workout clothes and hand me downs from other people. Eventually, maybe post wedding, I’ll have the freedom of money to buy new clothes. Maybe I should take you shopping with me. :)

      Hehe. You are so cute. I haven’t heard or seen any of those stores. So far all I’ve found that I like is City Chic which I believe is an Australian brand.
