Ah, weekend, it felt like you were barely there long enough! So much excitement, and now I am just tired and ready for a nap.
But we slog on, and we wear the crazy vintage dress a second time!
And yes, I did dye my hair again - it's blonder! |
Today, it's back to the grind - still sick, with a hacking cough. I just had a nap, so blog and then dinner. I'm halfway through the January capsule recap, so stay tuned.
I wore this dress as a skirt today, using one of the layering tricks I learned while remixing my dresses in capsules this year. The cardigan was deployed in September's capsule (recap here).
I added a black belt, lacy black tights and blue blue blue suede shoes (previously featured in May's capsule, recap here).
So, how does this outfit treat you? Vote!
AJ Bari 80s dress: Outfit #2
The stuff (yes! return of the "stuff pictures"!):
Such a great vivid pattern!
I wore a fuzzy felt rose and little turquoise matching flower studs.
I got several comments on my "sunshine" and bright colours today.
Dress (AJ Bari, vintage 80s, thrifted), cardigan (Jessica, consignment), shoes (Feet First), felt flower and earrings (locally made), belt (Plum).
I know I've told you many times about what a monster Vizzini is - and the evidence of his attack on my Fluevog Wonders Ayers was certainly visceral. But when L tried to put his boots on the other day, I had to take some pictures.
Lace-up boots: meet your match!

"Must...bite...laces!" |
"Got one!" |
Wow! You're very blonde now! I love that shade, super gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI say keep the dress, but then again, I'm a closet-purger. On a 1-10 scale, I'd give a 6.5 or 7 on keepability.
Vizzini is saying "I R HALPING *NOMNOMNOM*"
your hair color is radiant and pretty! your dress looks like it was meant to be a skirt. i wouldn't have known any better had you not said so. i really do like the outfit and i voted accordingly.
ReplyDeleteStunning dress, the print is awesome and you have styled it beautifully...x
ReplyDeleteReally like your new hair colour! And I love the dress with the blue cardi and accessories too - such a nice dress, definitely a keeper :)
ReplyDeleteThe blue is excellent with your hair, and your outfit is lovely, great lacy tights and pattern combo. Vizzini is a fierce shoelace hunter!
ReplyDeleteI voted Keep! I love the shape of this skirt/dress, and of course the colors. A couple of our cats have been lace-hounds over the years. They're fast!
ReplyDeleteOoh love the new blonde hair! So pretty! And your dress is amazing - I like it. I didn't even realize it was a dress, it makes a great skirt with the cardigan!
ReplyDeleteOur kitties love anything with string too.
Oh I think this dress is going to gert a lot of wear as the weather gets warmer. It's almost like a skirt with a built in matching camisole!!
ReplyDeleteVIZZINI!!! There can never be too much Vizzini cuteness. He's prote4cting Daddy from the viscious shoestring snakes!!
I continue to love the Bari dress. It's a keeper.
ReplyDeleteYESS to the DRESS!
ReplyDeleteSo lively paired with the cobalt accents.
You look so beautiful in this outfit. Love the blue.
ReplyDeleteThe pics of Vizzini are priceless. Critters add so much joy to our lives. Even when they are doing things like this it is so funny.
