This is a fat girl’s version of vintage. I know you know I love Beth Ditto, she is my fatshion hero, and she’s everywhere on my blog as you can see HERE! I bought this skirt (that I am wearing as a top) about a year ago on EBAY. There is almost always something from her Evans line, but it is a bubble skirt, and I just could not make it work for me. I wore Beth Ditto last Valentine’s Day, and decided I would just fool around until I found a look that I liked.
I also wore my first pair of knee high boots, you can read about those HERE.
The theme for our blogging collective, Ahead of the Curve is “Red Hot”, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

Wow Affinity!!!! You look amazing in that skirt!
Thanks you guys. I was sad when I bought it and it did not work, I am thrilled to wear it after it has been in my closet for so long.
You have such fun with clothes!
Thanks Nikki, I am lucky to have a fun life so I can wear outrageous clothes. When I was a lawyer, not so much…
affinity, you look gorgeous!
Thanks honey, so happy for your house, and yes the process is a pain.
What a smart idea. Your looks are always so fun and upbeat, and those hearts are terrific!
So much fun! I love everything about Beth Ditto too! I wish she would do more clothes!
There was a rumor last year at this time that she was going to partner with someone to do a less expensive line, but I have not heard anything recently…

I’m a huge Beth Ditto fan too, I’m always scanning ebay for some bits of her Evans line. 🙂
Thanks for finally writing about >Ditto.Ditto.Ditto.
