Happy Monday – if there is such a thing. I’m sitting here, eating “a handful of nuts”, which is my daily allotment as I’m trying a 2 week toxic cleanse thing. Think lots of lemon/cucumber water and NO food. It’s so bad; I’m eating the nuts one at a time just to savor each and every one.
But this is a fashion blog, right?! So enough about food and on to today’s post which is an eBay special.
Never underestimate the power of eBay. I was in search of a satin skirt or dress and after all attempts at finding one in store failed I decided to try eBay. I did a simple search for satin dresses and this wonderful, bright fuchsia dress popped up! I think I paid $40 or so for it and couldn’t believe how beautiful the fabric and color was.
I’ve worn it to a few events and decided to wear it to work today paired with a black polka-dotted cardigan to dress it down. I also separated the belt from the dress and tied it around the cardigan for a more polished look.
There’s something about wearing satin, perhaps its the rustle of the fabric…it just makes me feel special. And that is much needed on a Monday! Cortneybre…
This dress is gorgeous! I LOVE the bow!
Thanks! I’m amazed at the stuff I find on eBAY and this was one of my lucky (and wonderfully cheap) finds. I would wear it every day if I could; I just love the color and the feel of the fabric. And of course, the bow! 🙂
So pretty and stunning color on you! Love how you dressed it down…I find that’s always the hardest part when it comes to satin. Nicely done!

Of course! I have a blue satin dress I’ve been trying to “winterize” for a while…I plan on stealing your look!
