{Sewing} The Long and Short of It

{Sewing} The Long and Short of It - The Dressed Aesthetic

I think, no matter how daring you are, you can always get stuck in a bit of a rut. While I have a reputation for being somewhat fashionably “You Do You“, I’ll be the first to admit that I have my comfort zone. Without fail, day or night, you can be sure you’ll see me in a full skirt cinched within an inch of its life and as many crinolines as I can conceivably stack beneath some manner of glitter.

As I sit here clacking away on my keyboard, I’m enjoying a tradition that hasn’t been able to happen for several years. Thanks to the wonders of science and the fact that they released the vaccine for 5-12 year olds, my sister, brother-in-law, and niece made the trek all the way down to NC (and I do mean trek. None of us felt safe flying yet, so they bundled into the car and zoomed through 13 hours of pavement and rest stops).

This was definitely a Thanksgiving like no other. In years past, one of my favorite parts of the holiday was the annual visit from my sister, brother-in-law, and niece, Brynn, who would bring energy and effervescence into our home here in NC. Thanks to the pandemic, Zoomsgiving is what’s on the menu. But, I can think of nothing to be more grateful for than those who will forego time with family and friends to keep each other safe.

Happy Day After Turkey Day! Mr Dressed and I had an amazing Friendsgiving and are now spending our friday being completely lazy and eating my favorite form of Thanksgiving leftovers: take some of those Pillsbury crescent rolls – put turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce into each one and bake. Dip in gravy. Repeat (you’re welcome).

{Review} It's a Cinch: The Jolie Cotton Corset by Glamorous Corset - The Dressed Aesthetic

To me, there are two key ingredients to wearing vintage: The first, hands down, is confidence. Wear it like you deserve it, cause you do. The second, is having a proper foundation. I’ve tried just about all the products out there (at least it feels that way). And today I’m sharing my thoughts on a company I recently discovered: Glamorous Corset.

Happy Day After Thanksgiving everyone! We’re having an absolutely fabulous time over here in the Dressed household. We have some family in town, and have absolutely stuffed ourselves silly of turkey and all the fixings and I don’t think you could convince me to move my tryptophan-laden self off of this sofa if you tried….

Happy Day After Thanksgiving everyone! My Dressed and I made a pact – despite how crazy busy we both are, we vowed to put our gadgetry and work away and truly take Thanksgiving off. We made roasted mini-turkey (aka chicken) and all the fixin’s, watched bad tv, and didn’t leave the comfort of our pajamas. It was pretty fabulous and oh so needed.

{Review} The Grace Dress by Hearts and Found - The Dressed Aesthetic

A few months ago I discovered the amazing shop Hearts and Found – and introduced you all to the cutest ever play skirt set I had ever laid eyes on. If you’ve never heard of Hearts & Found before, they’re a swoon worthy Etsy shop who make beautiful vintage inspired clothing – and all of them can be made to your exact measurements! Even better, they have a mission to support local businesses and tailors and source all of their fabrics from local Vietnam markets. I was so smitten with my last experience I knew it was only a matter of time before I…
