Announcing! A new feature I know you’ll like. Every First Monday of the month, we’ll have a special edition of Visible Monday, sponsored by my friends at Karina Dresses.
Karina will provide one of her of-the-moment designs for me to model, and keep. And they’ll give away a Karina dress to a lucky winner in the giveaway below. Good times.
This dress is the Patti. It’s not named for me, but I am claiming it as a new favorite. It’s a retro-styled sheath with a fitted waist, straight skirt and pockets. Pockets on everything, I say. Machine wash and hang to dry, never a wrinkle. Check it out here in other fabulous prints.
The Patti fits like a dream. My silver leaf pendant looks glam against the navy, yeah? I can wear this dress year-round in Florida, and it’s a perfect three-season dress for most climates. |
And, enter to win a Karina dress of your choosing. The winner will be selected at random on December 7, 2014. All you have to do to qualify is fill in your email address below, and leave a comment on this page. That’s it.
Now, show us what you’re wearing, Visible Women!!
The guidelines to participate in the Visible Monday Link-Up are so simple!
- Whoever wants to can join in! Just compose a post that includes any outfit, accessory, piece of jewelry, hairstyle, cosmetic or other adornment that makes you feel more confident, alive and visible that day.

I'm so excited at the thought of winning a beautiful Karina dress! 🙂 Thanks for the chance!
Love the accessories
Karina Dresses are my favorite! I love the Marisa dress best! 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win!
I've never owned a Karina dress but have read many great reviews and I think they are so pretty! Thanks for the giveaway.
What an awesome partnership and giveaway. Count me in! And you look awesome in the "patty". : )
I love the length of this dress
the karina dresses are amazing beautiful
Love that dress- so stylish!
I love all these dresses, but my favourite has to be the Julie, because I think it is the first dress I've seen that would work for my body right now. I gave up wearing dresses years ago when I put on some weight, and would love to be able to wear them again.
your boots are cute too
What a great giveaway! Fingers crossed. 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway!
Thanks for the giveaway. You look lovely!
Lovely dress. Even better–machine washable and no ironing! I'm going to pretend it was named after you. It looks made for you!
What a beautiful dress, can't wait to check out their website. FYI – Just wanted to let you know that I had a hard time using the link-up button this week.
The Patti dress is gorgeous and it looks like it was made for you! Love the diagonal stripes! You make a great model for Karina dresses!

That dress looks great on you! Love it!
I like that you funked it up a bit with your booties. I wouldn't want to see you all lady-like completely, ya know. You'd think I'd know better by now…So you're saying you're gonna get a new dress once a month? Way to go, Patti. Way to go.
What a great giveaway! Everyone always looks lovely in Karina dresses – would love to be a winner of this giveaway!
Patti that dress looks as though it was made for you! It's quite stunning. I am not familiar with this label so going off to take a look. Thanks for sharing.
Very pretty dress
What a gorgeous dress – perfect year-round here in Florida! I hadn't heard of Karina before, I must visit the site immediately.
What a beautiful dress! I need to look at their clothes!
Wow! That dress is incredible and how funny that it has your name…
Lovely dress and it looks great on you.
What an exciting giveaway! And I think that somehow the Patti WAS named for you, Dear!

The dress is gorgeous.
When I looked through the dresses the other day when you announced the giveaway I have to admit I thought it was named after you. 😉

I really love the way you look in blue, perfect with your hair. The dress is aptly named.

That dress looks great on you. I am another "Patti" and I wonder if it will look as great on me. Thanks for the chance to win it.
I really, really like stripes. I may have to order this one.
I love the dress you are wearing! I haven't been able to join vVsible Monday due to the size of my pictures and a learning curve but I think I have finally worked it out and will be joining this week. Peace! Cheryl
I was going to be late for last week's Visible Monday so didn't have long to wait for this one. You look gorgeous in your namesake dress Patti. Thanks for hosting a special edition link-up.
Patti, I can see why this dress should be named after you, it speaks Patti in every way to the colors, to the fit and the personality. What a fun monthly post.
Hello Patti!
Beautiful dress and i'm so thrill to be part of Visible Monday again!
What a gorgeous dress on you, Patti…thanks for hosting VM AND the give-away!
Love your blog and am a regular reader. The tips on how to style outfits to look my age, but not frumpy, are great! The Karina dresses are gorgeous and so flattering!
Cute dresses – the Penelope might be my favorite!
Patti, this is my number one favorite look for you! This dress is stunning and fits perfectly! Wear it often!
the Patti is a perfect fit on you, it looks stunning. Congrats on the giveaway, a lovely idea for visible monday. (Im not entereing because I really don't need another dress.)
The dress and the pendant were made for each other, and both appear made for you! Perfect!
Lovely dress.
This is a wonderful dress Patti, I love the shiny detail – perfect for the festive season! You look lovely 🙂 hugs x
Well, how cool is that awesome dress on you! I love the retro styling of it – and yes, everything should have pockets! Love it, Patti! Will be linking up shortly – thank you for hosting!
Your 'signature' dress looks fantastic, and the blue is just the perfect shade for you.
I don't doubt this dress has your name on it! Literally. It suits you to a tee. I especially like a square neckline and the diagonal stripes on the lower half. Very cool.
