Daydreaming


Hi! if you've noticed my absence, it has not been voluntary. i have been in bed with influenza for a whole week. But yesterday (though tired) i made myself get up and get dressed. when i went to the closet the first thing i saw was this dress. Its a 1940's number i borrowed from Quincy of Q's Daydream. It seemed like the perfect thing to lift my spirits. Sometime soon you'll get to see the dress that i traded to Quincy styled by her, but in the meantime, you must check out her adorable shop and blog.

1940's black dress- Traded from quincy
Grey floral tights-target
grey suede bow belt- Darlingtonia
1950's-60's shoes- in the shop
please excuse my awesome variety of poses. clearly still tired :)
i hope you had a much better week than i did. and i can't wait to be listing in the shop again :)
thanks so much for reading,
m

  4. Hey lady! I'm sorry you were feeling sick, but I'm glad you're all better. I'm really kind of in love with your outfit - the dress looks PERFECT on you and I think you should try to convice Quincy to let you keep it! Also, those Darlingtonia belts are so great. I have one in sand and want to collect them all, ha ha.
