What I Wore - Girl in a Red Dress

I am in LOVE with this dress. I love the fabric, I love the color, I love the feel, I even LOVE the cut. Oh yeah. I LOVE the price. I think I paid about... 20 cents give or take. I stuffed it in my $2/bag thrift store purchase. When I found the dress, I didn't think much of it but I am glad that I tossed it in the bag. I was more excited about the leather jacket for my husband and the awesome motorcycle boots that I got. Since my husband doesn't like the jacket even though he looks awesome in it and it is too warm for the boots (and I need to get inserts for them) I am going to spend my time thinking about and wearing this dress!




I thought this silhouette would not work on me. THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD TRY NEW THINGS!

Of course, because I love this dress my pen bubbled ink out of it onto the skirt of the dress! Never fear. I was able to blot the majority of the ink out. Can you find the ink spot?



I asked my mom if she can copy this dress for me. Wish me luck!

Red Dress - thrifted
White Dress (layered over) - American Basics
Khaki Blazer - Relativity via Herbergers on sale.
Shoes - Black Naturalizers
Earrings- Liz Clairborne via Herbergers for $5! Yay for sales and there is more where that came from. I think I picked up 4 or 5 items for the $5 each on sale.
