Naturally, the photo session wouldn’t be complete without channeling Maria’s famous cover pose…
Here’s a view from the back…
So now that I’ve had my movie-lover and fashion fun, it’s time for the honestly game.
Honestly it was as hot as heck the day of this photo session, but the dress kept me as cool and comfortable as I think I could have possibly been in that weather.
Honestly I sat on a lot of dirty things during the pictures, like rocks, stone benches, brick walls, and the like, and the dress stayed as fresh looking as it was when I took it out of the package.
Honestly I like the way it covers up my mommy pooch and makes me look thinner than I actually am.
Honestly I love that the gathers and ruching at the top make me look, *ahem* bustier than I actually am.
Honestly I did wear a white tankini underneath because I the top was just a teensy bit see-through and I wanted to be totally comfortable in public. {You can see my tankini strap peeking out in the photo below…oopsie!}
Honestly I was afraid the cap sleeves would fall down. BUT they didn’t! And they are comfy too.
Honestly, this dress is a steal…it costs {are you ready for this} $29.99!!!
Seriously. Where can you get a dress this great for less than $30? That’s the same price or cheaper than most of the dresses at Target right now. In fact, almost every dress at Tailor & Stylist is $50 or less. {See why I love them, friends?!}
And…..you can get 10% off sitewide if you use this code: artsymama10.
Yup, that means you can get this very dress for $27. We can be twinsies! In fact, if you get yourself something fun from T&S, send me a pic so I can share it! Ok…I think I’m done now, but I just love me some good affordable fashion, don’t you?!
What’s your favorite summer style?

I am loving their dresses! I will definitely need to check them out. Would you say their sizing is pretty accurate? Like if you normally wear a certain sized dress, you can get that size from them?

Okay – YES to the recreation of Liesl and Rolf in the gazebo! This is my favourite scene in the film: “I am sixteen…”
The dress is adorable. I love skirts that are a bit flowy.

Lauren Lanker says
Ha ha! I loved the Sound of Music photo shoot. Way to have fun with this! And your honestly list has me convinced that I, too, would love to rock a dress from Taylor and Stylist! (Super cute dress color, too.)
Happy Fourth!
