In the excitement of fashion week, I totally forgot that yesterday was Fashion Me Fabulous' 2nd birthday! I can't believe we've been at this for two years. Thank you to all our lovely readers who keep us blogging.
Favorite Things: feeling like I have an idea of what's going on in the fashion world without having to follow all the seasons and shows myself, your shopping posts, your humorous writing, Polyvore outfits, love or loathe... I kind of like a lot of things...
Least Favorite Things: Do I have to choose something?? Not that I particularly dislike them, but I rarely check out the Etsy shops/Vintage shops of the week.
Awesome job keeping it up for this long- it's gotten so much better over time and I'm sure it will continue to do so. Bravo!!
What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion.

You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
Summer. It's coming soon with it's sunshine, high temperatures, picnics, festival, barbecues, pool parties and so many more events that require being outside in the heat. If you're shopping in any stores right now, you might have noticed that all the so called sun dresses are made of itchy, plastic-y, hot material. They look summery, but they'll bake you. Worry not, I've found a cotton summer dress that can get you through the whole summer for less than $20. Add a cropped cardigan or short-sleeve blazer for the office. Don some walking sandals, a fun sunhat and cute sunglasses for a day the fair. Dress it up with high heels, jewelry and a cute wrap for evenings. The possibilities are endless. It's even cute when you layer two different colors. The fit is beautiful. Compose of 95% cotton and 5% spandex, it fits close to the body through the top and flares gently, which means it works even if it doesn't line up perfectly with you waistline. This dress is
