Just like the last glass of wine in a bottle or a lovely slice of cake, I am totally powerless to resist the pull of a good vintage dress. You’d think I’d have enough by now, but the moment I spy that crazy print poking out from a rack of chain store duds in an op shop I have a VERY hard time walking away.
This amazing dress was no different. It was on the $1 rack and I grabbed it without even trying it on. When I got home I found that it was actually being held together almost entirely by dress pins, with all of the seams coming apart. It was in dire need of some TLC, so I sewed it all back together and chopped off a bit of the length and then promptly wore it out. It’s so fabulous I just could not resist!
I can always find space for another vintage dress! What are your wardrobe weaknesses? You're allowed more then one, my other is sunglasses (if you couldn't guess!).

ReplyDeleteI can see no specific reason why you can't wear white. once Try white dress.
