Another vintage number
for you guys and this one is utterly lovely. I've found a new haunt to shop for
vintage goodies and best of all, they're all so cheap! It's so hard nowadays to
find genuine vintage items for prices of old so I was super happy when I found
this dress. I always try to find the origins of a vintage item but it was
difficult with this one, late 80s was the closest I could get. It's also a good
indication with elastic as that didn't really come to the forefront of dress
fashion until 70s/80s, so I'm pretty confident with that date.
Dress: Vintage
Tights: Boots
Shoes: Simply Be
I absolutely adore the blue. Royal blue is my
favourite colour and this is a little darker with more sheen. Blue really is
becoming quite prominent in my wardrobe and I'm always surprised at how well it
goes against my skin tone. The features of the dress are great too. The buttons
are awesomely bulky, the flowers are made of rich colours, and as ever, I was
thrilled to find another vintage dress with an elasticated waist. The gem of
all gems though are the pockets! What I wouldn't give to have more pockets on
dresses. The print and length makes this dress great for this time of year and
I can't wait to ditch my tights for a bare-legged, sunshine spring look with
sandals and shades.....speaking of sandals, head to Primark if you're looking
for fab, cheap sandals. I bought a few pairs a couple of days ago during my lunch break
and I aim to buy a few more come payday!
'til next time!
Love and hugs,
