Monroe & Main Review & Giveaway

Monroe and Main is a campaign going on that helps women dress to deal with their problem areas. I know as a confident blogger I may get some flack for doing something to "Camouflage Mid-Section" but even I have days where I want to hide certain imperfections on my body. Which is why the Monroe & Main Fit For You Guide is so perfect. It helps women of different sizes and shapes find stylist clothing to help with their trouble areas.The four categories during the month of October are:

  • Hide Hips and Add Height
  • Short-Waisted
  • Camoflauge Mid-Section
  • De-Emphasize Bust

This week I am doing the Camouflage Mid-Section along with Hannah R. from http://www.anoldstoryblog.blogspot.com. If you go to the Monroe & Main website you will find that they help you find your fit...




After that... you can choose what you want to section speak to your body type and it will give you tips like you see below. It will also link you to fashion that is directly connected to the section you choose. Easy peezy... right. Wrong... once they link you to the fashion, be prepared to find it quite difficult to not want to buy everything you see. 


So after I chose what I wanted to do to camouflage my midsection (you can't go wrong with a wrap dress).  I decided to wear it too different ways. I noticed the dress I choose would be great for spring/summer... but was fun & funky enough to also make the transition into fall. I also was gifted a blazer... but apparently it is still in a box somewhere as I recently moved. Here is what I did with the dress and necklace that Monroe and Main graciously provided...

First... I wore it with no tights with a patent pump. Easy and fun... I wore a tank under because it would have still have been for work. But you could have easily taken off the tank and made it a date night outfit.
 

 

While outside taking these pictures... I had the insight that it was too cool to wear no hosiery... so I revamped the outfit in fall fashion and had hubby take more pictures...








What I'm weraring:
Tank: forever21
noTights: Silkies
Patent pumps: Target
Gold studded booties: Lolashoetique
earrings: ?????

As you can probably tell... I felt more confident in the second round of shots... but all in all I love the dress and the blazer (sad face you will have to see it later)... But I will definitely be buying more pieces from them. This dress was so comfortable I didn't want to take it off...
