A Change of ... Lace

I have a funny, yet extremely embarrassing, story to share with you all. 

I work at an outpatient clinic, so it's important to look very professional. During the summer time, I wear tons of dresses. Being a tiny bit taller than the average woman, many of my dresses are a little too short.

One day at work, my practice manager pulled me aside and whispered in my hear, "I wasn't sure if I should say anything but I would want someone to tell me if I were you ... so I'm letting you know that I just saw straight up your dress!" ...

Naturally, I was mortified! I asked, "How did you see up my dress?" and she replied, "Earlier when you bent over to pick something up! Maybe today it'll be best to do squats when you need to pick something up".

Ever since that incident I've been paranoid about showing my hiney to the world. I thought about getting some slips to go under my skirts and dresses, but I wanted something prettier. Luckily, I came across Laci Street. They're the only boutique I've been able to find that has standard AND plus size lace dress extenders .... along with short extenders and top extenders. Below are several different ways the lace dress extender can be worn.

I got black, blush, and white :)

My favorite things about these lace dress extenders:

  • I'm no longer paranoid about my dresses being too short
  • You can wear them with tops! A couple of these outfits are simply hi-low tops that I've made into a dress by wearing the lace extender underneath!
  • If I have a dress that is really thin and almost see-through, these lace extenders are perfect for that extra coverage
  • The detail in the lace is gorgeous



Also, I had the pleasure of speaking with a few of the staff members from Laci Street and they are wonderful! They quickly respond to any messages and they're very kind and professional.

I'm looking to possibly do a collaboration with them in the near future, so stay tuned for updates on that :)
