Vintage Boutique Dress


dress: vintage via Etsy
hat: via thrift
belt: via thrift
wedge heels: via ALDO
lipstick: Mauve It Over by Revlon

With the start of my final year of university, I am finished with my uniform wearing summer job. This means I can get up to my old antics - drinking copious amounts of green tea, learning like a house on fire, wearing tall shoes, blogging, and wearing my lovely garments.

I love online vintage shopping. However, I frequently run into the problem of a purchase not fitting my body the same it did the mannequin or model in the photo. This has led to a lot of wasted dollars and a lot of disappointment. This dress was one of my few purchases that fits great! I love the contrasting collar, little ascot bow, and floral print. But I mean, what else is new? It combines so many of my favourite things!

The collar and the bow make this dress! They're both such cute additions.
