Yesterday, was a nice, bright sunny day in Tucson! There was a calm chill in the air, but it definitely did not feel like winter. The weather just bounces all over the place here! So I decided to wear a favorite thrift find of mine! Would you believe I only paid $2.50 for this dress at a yard sale this past summer. It is in perfect condition inside and out! I did have to take it in a little, but no biggie. It is a 1940's rayon floral and navy print, with shutter style pleats, and includes my favorite pop of yellow color!
My accessories included; my 1940's Ivory earrings and bracelet, nude fully fashioned seamed stockings, cream colored belt and cream1940's inspired peep toe pumps. I enjoyed a lovely Sunday service and a good breakfast brunch with my husband, son and parents!
I hope that everyone had a swell weekend and a fabulous ahead!

Oh how I wish I could find similar amazingness at our local thrift shops/garage sales, etc. No such luck. Oh well, you truly look perfect (and your HAIR!!!) Gorgeous

Oooohhh, I envy your gentle, beautiful sunshine and balmy temps. We've had thicker-than-thick fog and very "blah" weather here for most of the week.
ReplyDeleteThat dress is absolutely wonderful, you look so pretty!
