Good Friday Everyone!  Welcome to my very first Fashion Free for All!  As you know, I have been kinda talking about this for little over a week now and I feel that this gives us fellow bloggers the opportunity to link up and see what we all have to offer. I hope that you guys enjoy this and I look forward to the missions to come!

This week's fashion is STRIPES!  

Everywhere you look nowadays, you see them in all different capacities!  Whether in accessories, or a full blown outfit!  And of course, I couldn't have my 1st Free for All without a few of my beautiful blogger friends!  

Check out these beautiful ladies and their spins on this popular trend!

Let's talk about my dress!  If you are not aware, this year I decided to get my act together healthwise, which included in daily exercise and eating better.  While I can admit that the summer threw me for a complete loop (kids being out of school really detoured me from keeping to my set schedule), I am still determined to look as good as I can.  Still not 100% where I want to be, but it's a work in progress!

I have been stepping out of the box this year with my wardrobe choices, which leads me to this dress!

I found this dress at Choies.com and I must say that I am in COMPLETE love with it!  I first saw Mimi Goodwin in it, but hers was HANDMADE, which I have NO skill behind the sewing machine, but I was on the hunt to find it!  I had completely given up when Choies contacted me to do a review for one of their pieces and THERE IT WAS!!  Now, Mimi's dress was red and blue,(and she look a million times better than me in hers, lol) but black and white was just fine for me!!  So, of course, I jumped on the opportunity to wear this dress and the rest is HISTORY!!! This dress is SOOOO sexy and it fits like a glove!  Hubby paired my Angeline Boutique shoes with it (I totally didn't think the shoes would go, but they look AWESOME with this dress!), simple accessories and we're good to go!
