I found my housewife dress yesterday and fell in love with the pattern and the colors. It's heavy polyester/cotton blend though and it will stay in my closet until fall. I can't wait to explore all the layering possibilities but until then I had to give it the plaid shirt treatment!
On its own it looks dated and of course that's why I like it but it's also a challenge to make it look more modern.
I can't get enough of the subtle colors and the daises. So beautiful retro feeling. Already one of my favorite dresses.
wow, this is good look!!!

You totally nailed it! It doesn't look dated on you at all! Just adorable, as you are :-)
ReplyDeleteI love that dress Angie, and it's got pockets! Love your accessories, and that plaid shirt has definitely earned it's place in your wardrobe.. You look fabulous. xx
ReplyDeleteSuch a very pretty print, and the addition of the checked shirt is perfect! xxx
ReplyDeleteI love the way you update things by mixing and matching them! Thanks for the master class :-)
ReplyDeleteThe colours are so pretty and I love how you paired it with the shirt. It's a great way to make it look updated and unfussy.
