Scrutiny by the Masses: Shabby Apple - Beautiful, Stylish and Affordable

Shabby Apple - Beautiful, Stylish and Affordable

I was compensated for this review. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.

I love to wear dresses. I think that they make me look more pulled together, more classy, and wearing a dress just makes me feel more feminine. It can be difficult to find a great dress that either a) doesn't look like I'm on my way to the club or b) qualifies me as the most covered up woman this side of Iraq.

There's gotta be a good looking compromise, is my point.

Shabby Apple delivers on that point.

Founded by two women who were tired of the inability to find stylish dresses that were modest, Shabby Apple has become synonymous with stylish clothes that need no tank top or cardigan to be beautifully modest and attractive.In their store descriptor, they say: Wehave designed dresses that are “A return to what dresses were always meant to be — a one-piece outfit. No need to add anything…no tank tops, no cardigans, nothing (except accessories, of course!).

I love their dresses, and I was thrilled to be able to try one for myself - and have the opportunity to offer the same dress to one of my readers! I looked at the website for a long time. I went back and forth between a few dresses, but this was my ultimate choice:

Nothin' Like a Dame

(I have no idea why the photo is so small.) Click the link to see the dress in all it's glory.

The fabric is soft, the dress is flattering and this dress has quickly become one of my favorites.

Ordinarily, I don't "like" facebook pages just to get in on a giveaway, but in this case, I really liked the page I was liking! Still checking out dresses...will be back with my favorite.

After careful consideration, I think I've settled on Peru, although my nine year old daughter pointed out to me that of the five dresses I currently own, three of them are polka-dotted (and two of those are black and white). I also love the one you chose, though, and Cayenne. Oh, dear.

I liked them - because I DO! I would love to chose a classy, fun - polka dress for my April birthday...which by then I will be 50# less than last year!!

Thanks for the opportunity!
