I was very excited yesterday after receiving a nice parcel in the post containing this dress! I won it on eBay for £3.20 (bargain!). Unfortunately, when I tried it on it came down past my knees and desperately needed a bit of modification. As usual, I cut it off way too short and extremely wonky, so I decided the only way to save it was to add this black band around the bottom.
I quite like the effect, and I think/hope it has made the dress look a lot more expensive.
I was going to wear it with mustard yellow tights but I was a bit unsure. What do you think?
My mum's old watch. You have to wind it up every day!I am completely in love with my new shoes. It's amazing how much extra confidence a small heel can give you!

Haven't you been to Amélie's cafe? If you want to I can tell you the Amélie places in Paris. Maybe I should post about it, I was almost everywhere! I am such a big fan.

The dress turned out lovely. That black band was actually the first thing I noticed, in a good way :)
the whole outfit looks absolutely gorgeous... and go for mustard yellow tights! i think they'd look pretty good! although knowing me i'd stick with woollen, ribbed grey ones to stick with the old wartime effect the dress has.
love those shoes :)
