I. Love. This. Dress.
More than words. But it’s so hard to wear. For starters, it’s too short to wear in the spring/summer, because it has to be worn with tights. I had long skinny legs as a child and my mother taught me early on that my best weapon against short skirts was opaque tights. And it’s hard to wear in the fall/winter, because the sleeves are so sheer. They are so sheer that they tuck really well into a jacket, with almost no bulk, but they are so pretty!~ Who wants to hide them?
I admit it looks cute with the jacket too, but after I saw these pics, I realized it looks best with the jacket buttoned so you can see my shape!~ (FYI, my bangs didn't make it past 9 AM before I put them back in a modified mini-side bump. I just can't handle it)
I love this necklace.When I first made it, I wanted to duplicate it to sell, but I could never find the blue crystal again.

That dress is so pretty! Just so you know, you CAN wear tights in the summer too. I do! But then, I'm kind of a weird one...
Those bangs are awesome, btw. I dig that dress, as well. it's so flowy and sort of reminds me of what i might expect a clean hippie chick to wear ... if such a thing existed.
I love the necklace and dress!
Lady, you have the BEST collection of boots! What's your secret!?
Your dress collection must be out of the world...and you are killin' each and every one of them. ;O) So cute!
That dress is awesome. Luckily it isn't going to be cold for quite some time, so thin dress and tights will be doable for a while. Small favors.
e,
Thanks. My secret is ebay and the thrift store, and sometimes, at the end of the season Delias. I do not lie. (I have tiny feet, so vintage fits)
OTG,
I'll run out soon, lol. And then it will be boring days for my readers I fear!~
That dress is just beautiful! It looks vintage 70s! Gorgeous! And e is right - you have an enviable collection of boots!
