Revisiting one of my favorite dresses

 

Dress is a no-name label bought on eBay a year or two ago..worn with vintage belt, a stack of my favorite bangles and Givenchy basket-weave wedges.

This dress is the best, a polyester wonder. I bet the girl who originally owned it wore it to Studio 54..wore it to Studio 54 all the time! I tell myself these things because I want to believe them...

That is what I love most about vintage, that there is a history behind it, if clothes could talk!!
Love the clear bangle you have there,

I've been trying to figure out how to make something similar since the last time you wore it.

If you find a chance, could you let me know how this masterpiece is put together? I'd really appreciate it.

Lovely dress! I love your hair too!

That dress and belt go perfectly together. I love that you wear clothes (and accessories, and shoes!) with character. And while most of the girls our age are living in "Uggs" and "Pink sweatpants", you're not afraid to wear what you really like :).

Photo of Samantha

when i look at your blog its usually to see things that are interesting and inspiring but way out of my comfort zone. this dress is just the right amount of interesting while still being very wearable. its lovely

Photo of Hallie

The contrast between the pattern and the solid color is really amusing. Both the color combination and the geometric pattern remind me of a giraffe!!! which also happens to be one of my fav animals. This is a really refreshing break from the current animal print craze. It's not too in your face like a leopard print but still bold and fresh. Interesting!

I also came across another picture of an animal-print-but-not-really boots. you might find it interesting! http://projectsuecho.wordpress.com/2009/11/10/gazelle/

Vintage on ebay is great, and (often) really cheap!
