Vintage Dress







I purchased this dress from Christina's etsy shop late last fall. I love both the skirt and the drape of the top. I didn't want to wear it over the winter b/c I didn't want to cover the beautiful draping, but I finally caved in February, because I really just wanted to wear the dress.

Today is the first time I've worn it without a sweater over top and heavy tights and boots underneath. You can see the great pleated skirt AND the nice drape of the top and sleeves. What a great spring item!

Where:
work, opening of Hubbard Street's spring show

What:
Dress: vintage, from Christina's etsy store
Shoes: Aldo
Bangle Bracelets: a mix of gift from Sabrina and vintage from my mother
Necklace: vintage from my grandmother
Tie worn as Belt: Structure (thrifted)
Earrings: vintage from my mother
Clutch: H&M

Thanks for my boyfriend for the assistance with photos tonight.
