When I found this dress at Saver's, my mom started laughing
because it was just like a dress that she had made in the 60's
When I tried it on and showed her I started laughing
as her eyes glazed over and I could tell she was
conjuring a nostalgic memory of her own
lovely A-line mod dress.
I purchased these tights a week before the Missoni line was released
and was impressed when I realized this week that they are very
similar to the $19.99 Missoni's but I only had to pay
$5.00 on Clearance for mine!
I always am left wondering what stories it would tell if it
could talk. The dress is beautifully made and I
wish I could ask the lovely person
who made it to sew me a few
more in other fabulous colors.
As soon as I can afford the sewing machine that
I want. I am going to use the dress as a pattern
to make another one just like it.
It fits me like a glove so another one would
be fantastic!

Love this blue dress with the striped jacket! Plus, you got to wear tights! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE living in this time because we can wear whatever we want from ANY era and it's cool because it's vintage. :0) Love the dress and especially the tights. Have a blessed Sunday! XO
ReplyDeleteGreat dress and a great story. I almost jumped for joy when I saw the tights and boots you were wearing--because that's definitely signaling the start of fall...and I loove getting dressed up for fall!
ReplyDeleteBTW: the necklace and ring came yesterday! It's even prettier than I thought. A thousand times thank you! I'll wear it with pride :)
Oh, your tights are so fun! I am so looking forward to pulling all of my tights out of my drawers as soon as this weather cools down a little more!
ReplyDeleteCute blog!
