love is all around

(dress: thrifted, wedges: kmart, cardi: cotton on, pearls: unknown, lace umbrella: ebay)

We found a little alley way near our house which was pretty quiet... perfect for taking outfit photos! This is what I wore on Valentines Day. I found this dress at one of my local thrift stores and I totally love it. It fits perfectly. I've noticed recently (slightly delayed - I should have done this about 5 years ago) that I need to start shopping for clothes a little differently. I have the hips and bust of a woman, and most of the dresses I own just don't suit my body shape anymore. It's been a bit sad to think I have to let go of some of my favourite dresses, but at the same time... I'm pretty excited at the idea of buying new dresses!

  22. Haha, love your mans poses with the umbrella! You look gorgeous! It is exciting to have a new reason to buy dresses. I have very wide hips against a small waist, so am always searching for dresses in a 50's shape that compliment them...

    I love your blog!
