Easter Outfit and Inspiration


When I saw this outfit on “Southern Curls &Pearls”, it was love at first sight.  I was instantly drawn to the color combination, the lace skirt, and then the pearls.  I loved it!  I was inspired so I knew I wanted to recreate the outfit for plus size.  I already had the shoes and the necklace.  However, I did not have the skirt and the shirt.  I hit the world wide web.  I found the pieces I needed on eBay and Lane Bryant.  It was done in a matter of minutes.  It was easy to find.  


From http://www.southerncurlsandpearls.com/2014/01/coral-cutie.html

Here's my version:









Talbot’s Plus Size Ivory Lace Skirt - $30.85
StripedPointe Zipper Back Top from Lane Bryant - $21.15  (I had a 50% coupon code so a real bargain)
Women’sChelesea Flat from Payless -$16.99   - $11.89  (I got 30% off this price when I purchased)
Pearl Bracelet from Dot’s - $5.80
Pearl Necklace (don’t remember)

I'm happy but I'm thinking about having the hemline raised a little bit to the knee on the skirt!   I think it might look more polished.  We'll see.

As a Christian, Easter for me is about a risen Savior  .  Here is a picture of my husband and I after church:


 "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9
