My monthly sewing post is live on Drifter and the Gypsy - for today's project, I reworked a vintage dress into something more modern. Check the post out here!
Hope you had a great Valentine celebration yesterday! For Neil and I, it meant dinner at Rolf and Daughters (squid ink pasta is a hit) and a movie at the Belcourt - Amour. It felt good to go old-fashioned for the night.

ReplyDeleteI love how this came out!! You were right about it being too girly, I love this kind of dresses but I have a hard time already looking younger than I am, so I try to avoid too girly outfits..!
ReplyDeletep.s. You look like a lost Deschanel sister! ♥
I wrote a rigorous post about this topic just some days ago (both in English and Spanish ;-)). A few tips about how to combine a really vintage dress so you don't look too costume-y. I invite you to check it and share your ideas too!

P.S.: your hairstyle works so well with that dress. Love it!
