Damn You Alexis!!!

I apologize again for my lack of post. I have been struggling deeply with my diabetes for the past two months and everyday life was hard! I have been working with my doctors and myself to feel better (but I am thinking about posting on that later). But I am coming around the bend and starting to feel better.

Earlier this year I won the most amazing giveway from The Curvy Fashionista, Marie Denee, during her 2nd Bloggerversary! I was lucky enough to win a piece of clothing from  Australian Collection Damn You Alexis!  The collection was created by Megan Moir Pardy, and her designs are amazing! For weeks I struggled with what I was going to get, I couldn't decide weather I should be totally practical or totally impractical. After much deliberation and driving the people around me crazy I finally through practicality to the wind and I choose the Space Skirt! It sooo cute, well fitted and the material is amazing. Pardy's designs are both whimsical and well crafted. I also must stop and mention the packaging. The skirt came in super cute messenger bag that has the Damn You Alexis logo on the front! I am a sucker for creative packaging!




I paired it with a black collarless blazer, a white tank and a pair of silver Jessica Simpson shoes. I will continue to add more Damn You Alexis's pieces to my collection. The design and the integrity of her materials are enough to bring me back for more continuously! If you haven't checked out Damn You Alexis please go look!
