After talking about pastels on Friday, I was in the mood to wear light hues this weekend. This dress is one of those amazing vintage treasures! I know a lot of people sometimes stray away from wearing longer length dresses {I'm guilty of this too!} but there is something so fun and feminine about wearing a dress with a couple extra inches. Kind of ironic, right? But, with a pair of tall heels, and the right accessories, a longer length can become a little more modern! I think my grandmothers would approve :)

bracelets Lauren Elan and Heather Belle
Matthew said I looked like quite the lady, so I had to prove him wrong! Would a lady do this? Probably not! hehe

Goodness! This has got to be one of my favorite outfits! I only wear dresses at least knee length and I absolutely love fabric that floats on the body. I'd live in that dress for sure.
ReplyDeleteThis is just ethereal and dreamy and wonderful. You look amazing! Great great outfit post Mara.

ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful wearing light hue colored dress. You were right; longer length dresses may look beautiful depending on what accessory you’re going to pair with it and depending on who wears it!
