This is one of those dresses that turns many heads, but you're not quite sure if it's because people like it or feel bad for me. The main reason I'm on the fence is because the last time I wore it was singing and dancing among cardboard cutout scenery in Oz in my high school's musical. For a minuscule-budget costume, this thing is pretty much as good as it gets. That's why I kept it. Shh, don't tell.

 

This outfit as a whole is pretty extreme vintage for me. It seems like something I'd grant oodles of chic points to if I saw somebody else wearing it, but I felt sort of...je ne sais quois...I think my problem was that I didn't have the right jewelry to wear with it. I don't know, what do you think?

vintage dress, lucky brand shirt (collar), modcloth shoes, f21 bracelet

 

Well anyways, I had fun in it. I mean come on, how can you not have a good day in a dress this insanely bright? I'll have to play around with some outfits centered around it and toss it on here for some advice from all y'all. In the mean time, I'm off to confer, converse, and otherwise hob-nob with my brother wizards :)
