Oh...it's been awhile.
I just keep forgetting to take pictures to document outfits.
And, I find myself standing in my closet thinking...'what should I wear?'
That was one reason I started participating in WIWW.
So I would have a library of pics of outfits.
And be inspired by all the other girls over on Lindsey's blog that link up!!
I've been dreaming of finding a vintage dress.
Only problem is...they are all usually too small for me.
I'm a size 10-12.
But guess what ladies....I found one and I'm in love.
And, it still had the original tags on the dress.
$5.99. Size 14-16.
Let me tell you....14-16 was still small back then!
Cream CottonVintage Dress w/Crocheted Hem: Betty Girl Boutique - Local
Brown Belt: Betty Girl Boutique
Ruffled Cardigan: Hollister
Bronze Wedges: Old
Turquoise Earrings: Target
And Kaia joined in on the action again. Isn't she so stinkin' cute? OK...I might be prejudice!
Skirt: Forever 21 {same as Lindsey's I think!}
Aqua Cardigan: Forever 21
Yellow Leather Flower Sandals: Steve Madden
Blooming Bobby: Funky Vintage Lovely

ReplyDeleteThat dress looks fantastic! Love it - and your daughter is beautiful (and I love her shoes!)
ReplyDeleteLook how cute you look! And I KNOW about the sizing. Patterns can be like that. I used to cringe in college when the seamstress in the costume dept would shout to the whole dressmaking team what size they should make my costumes. EEK!
ReplyDeleteBut really I just had to stop by and tell you my "What I wore EVO edition"....I haven't done a post on it yet....but if you see any pics where I'm wearing a pink striped shirt...that is OFFICIALLY my homage to April Kennedy. And I totally channeled you when I bought it. I don't wear it as well as you would. But it reminds me of you. :)
You and your daughter are both stinkin cute! :) Love the dress you found. You'll be able to do lots with it.
ReplyDeleteum SO ADORABLE! love the dress and belt!
ReplyDeleteYou look stunning in that dress and cardi!! That is exactly how I want to dress but I'm clueless. You're a great inspiration, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI think this might be my favorite WIWW outfit to date! You look absolutely gorgeous and I definitely think the cardigan is such a perfect color for you.
