Frills.


Apparently I've been inspired by Rhiannon's silent film posts, because my outfit felt like it was right out of an early film. It's the late 40's early 50s dress I got yesterday at Hatties Vintage, and it's so frilly! I just love it, especially with a big floppy hat, more photos here. Its made from really light swiss dot cotton, perfect for todays 85 degree weather. I did wish I was out somewhere today though, and not at work, it actually seemed like it would be a nice day to go to the Portland Rose gardens and have a picnic. Another time though :)
