Dresses with cutouts are one recent trend that has stuck around. There are so many variations, but I think the key to finding a curve-flattering cut-out dress is showing off your best assets. What I mean by this is pick an area of your body that you love. For me, I like to highlight my waist, so this dress with a cut-out that draws the eye there is perfect. You can show off your back or your hips, and the cutouts can be subtle or sexy. My dress is from H&M last year (I got it for our Mexico trip), but I linked a bunch of great options at the bottom of this post.
We spent last weekend in the Hudson Valley with friends. It was a little chaotic to have a toddler and three anxious dogs with us, but we had a lot of fun. I shared some highlights from our trip on Instagram. For the holiday weekend, we have a wedding celebration for a friend, and some grandparent time, but otherwise keeping it low key. As I mentioned in last week’s post, we are doing a lot to get the new house ready for us. We picked out paint colors, found a company to build a fence in the backyard for Bones, and ordered some lighting. Next up, picking a floor stain and figuring out the plan for window treatments. Oh, and at some point getting a second car! It’s a whirlwind, but I’m (mostly) enjoying it, and so grateful.
