My Love for this Jacquard Dress was Very Surprising

By Stacey Freeman 2 Comments

jacquard dressIf you had asked me if I could wear a jacquard dress, I would have said no. I would have thought the knit material would cling to the areas I try to hide. I never thought a jacquard dress would hang right on me. Well, as I’ve said before, you’ve gotta try everything to know what works on you. This dress is now one of my favorites in my closet.

I know it works on me too because my husband actually told me how much he loves this dress. Don’t get me wrong, he compliments me often, but he hardly ever notices specific articles of clothing. He notices if I have new shoes or if I’ve changed my hair. He hardly ever notices when I wear something new.

I think this dress works on my curvy frame because it is a fit and flair style. Although it is a knit material, it accentuates my smaller waist and floats away from my hips. This dress is almost perfect. I only wish it were about 3 inches longer. I prefer dresses that hit me right at the knee, but this one is still totally work-appropriate.

I chose to style the dress with bright patterned shoes in a similar checked pattern. I also threw on a statement necklace with blue stones and carried a vibrant red clutch. You might think the choice of shoes and purse are a bit odd. However, I thought the dress needed some bright colors, especially in the summer time.

The thing I love most about this dress is I’m sure it’s going to work well in fall too. I can envision throwing on some tights and booties and wearing this to the office with a little blazer or cardigan. If you’re interested in trying out a jacquard dress, I’ve selected some of my favorites this season. Or if you like mine, you can get it on sale right now.

    Thank you, Rox-Anne! I was so unsure, but the fit and flare does work so well on lots of body shapes.

Does anyone else have the January blues? . After Does anyone else have the January blues?

After the high of the holidays, I find myself feeling kinda sad in January.
.
Last week in Puerto Vallarta was such a dream but I’m definitely feeling the post-vacation blues. 
.
Don’t mind me, I may be posting these vaca photos for awhile. Take me back 😭. @villapremiere @enroute_communications #puertovallarta #travelblog #travelgram #hosted #hosteby

I’ve received a lot of DMs about traveling to Puerto Vallarta. New on poshinprogress.com, I’m sharing a full blog recap, including my thoughts on traveling during the pandemic and the experience we had.
.
Here’s a bit about where we stayed —  @villapremiere — is doing a fantastic job at keeping their employees and guests safe. Everyone is required to wear a mask; social distancing is maintained at all restaurants and public spaces; staff do not enter rooms except for room cleaning when the room is empty; hand sanitizing stations are present throughout the resort; hotel capacity is capped to ensure proper social distancing. I honestly felt very safe. If you have any other questions, please dm me or leave your questions below.

@villapremiere has gone out of their way to make my birthday magical. For my birthday dinner, they created a private four-course dinner for us in their gazebo peninsula that has the most amazing views of downtown Puerto Vallarta. Check out the (shaky) video I took as we walked to dinner. Honestly, I’ve never had such a special birthday. I can’t thank @villapremiere and @enroute_communications enough.

This is the first vacation I’ve had where the ha This is the first vacation I’ve had where the hardest decision is what drink to order at the swim up bar🍹. To say @villapremiere is true paradise wouldn’t even do it justice. We keep saying to each other, “this doesn’t feel like real life, we are so lucky.” Thank you @villapremiere for the absolute best birthday I’ve ever had.

When I thought about where to celebrate my birthday this year, I immediately thought of Puerto Vallarta. I had such a phenomenal experience here in 2019 with @visitpuertovallarta and @enroute_communications - I knew I had to come back. 
.
Thankfully, @villapremiere agreed to host me and I feel so beyond lucky. This place is pure magic. Head over to my stories for all the highlights over the next few days!

Birthday mood 🎉. . This might be the first time Birthday mood 🎉.
.
This might be the first time I ever posted about my birthday on Instagram mostly because I’m not one to announce things like that. I’ve always felt uncomfortable receiving compliments. But this year, I feel so overwhelmingly happy that I wanted to share why.
.
In my early 30s, I dreaded getting older. Now, I honor each passing year and make an effort to do something special for myself (more on that later this week). 
.
The older I get, the more I feel confident in who I am. I feel so blessed to have the life I created and the support of the people who have stuck by me over the years. Here’s to celebrating one more trip around the sun.  #itsmybirthday #birthdaygirl #capricorn
