I haven't worn this dress since August! The short sleeves make it pretty much a warmer-weather outfit (I froze in the AC in the office today). I wore my burgundy vintage flounced slip with this (last seen on Valentine's Day).
The stuff:
Second wear of my gold shoes (last seen here). They were much more comfortable this time.
I love the circle pattern in this fabric, and decided to wear "ball" jewelry with it:
That's my Grandma J's necklace (it's Anne Klein, and I think it's probably from the early 80s), my cheap-o gold ball earrings, my fake Gucci eelskin bracelet and a bigass costume ring.

Cute dress and I really love the shoes...they are the perfect heel for me!! I haven't frozen in AC in so long...just a couple of hours from us today, the temp was already 102!!
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit. And, nothing makes a great outfit better like a big black and white boycat muscling in on the shot.
ReplyDeleteI like that print,and puff sleeves are too cute to hide under layers in the winter.
ReplyDeleteWow, I can't believe that dress has been hiding for so long - it looks so great! The color is just gorgeous, and I like the red slip peeking out from underneath.
ReplyDeleteI love that dress! Love it. Very unique and quirky.
ReplyDeleteI'm into polka dots lately! Very cute and feminine outfit! Love the gold shoes! kisses

You're making me regret passing up that wrap dress the other day at the thrift store (despite the fact that I knew it was a bad purchase - having a run in the fabric can't be good!). I desperately need a dress with PATTERN!
ReplyDeleteKittybomb! Hooray for smokinglily. That's one of my favorite dresses of your's.
ReplyDeleteawwww, kitty!
ReplyDeleteHe was drawn to that exceptionally beautiful dress - he has great taste!
Cute; I have missed seeing that dress!
ReplyDeleteInigo and George should meet someday, since they are a big pair of hams.
Thanks, Pam! I love a kitten heel. Wow, that's hot!

Karen, you must be right.
