This weekend we went trawling the shops and charity shops in Winchester, when I saw this great St Michael dress, in perfect condition. It fits like it was made for me, but in typical fashion I had already spent all my money this month on sewing patterns etc., so my wonderful husband bought it for me. Excuse the wrinkles, I have already worn it twice:)

OOh that's such a lovely dress Drappa. I adore the colour and the neckline. I always keep an eye out for vintage Marks and Sparks dresses and clothing, as it is so well made compared to their offerings these days!

Thanks ladies! He was in a bit of a mood, because he sits there when he wants to be let out, but I was ignoring him and instead taking pictures... :D

Dress only, although if the shoes and bag were for sale I would have gone after those as well. I'm having a spring shopping spree.

Love it! All of you ladies have such gorgeous things!

Thank you The Powder Keg and Miss Golightly. I also just bought these two dresses; I can't wait for Spring!:

That second dress is awesome, Black Dahlia. I never imagined light gray and red would go so well together. Although I'm no stripes girl, I adore that dress.

Thank you wahine. Me too, and it looks very flattering on. ;0

oh I love the new Elvgren inspired line from Bettie Page Clothing!

So do I! There are so many dresses I want from the line. *sighs* Dreamy dresses.

Berlin, great shoes! And they look quite comfortable, too (esp. the 2nd pair).

Yesterday, my auntie got me an easter present. I was looking for ages for a basic black dress that I could wear for many occasions, depending on the accessories I combine. It was practically impossible to get any dress in the right length (they were all either showing the knee = too short, or way too long).
This is the model in a light color, mine's black.

I know it doesn't really look like anything special, but I'm soo happy!
Yay! :D
Also, my auntie will alter the top a bit, so it'll fit better and look less like a t-shirt.

It's lovely. I have an almost identical dress, except mine has a boatneck, and it is so useful. I have worn it to all sorts of occasions form work to dressier events, so it's been worth it's weight in gold (well, sort of :D )

Haha, I just tried on the same dress in navy blue yesterday. I just hope yours fits better than the one I tested. Everything looked wrong. Too much fabric between the shoulders, not enough in that special front area. Very strange.
