End Of Summer Blues





Vintage Hat
Dress: Modcloths Chain Letter Dress
1950's Crinoline
Vintage Straw Bag: In my shop!
Shoes: Anthropologie, two years ago

I've been so excited about this post you guys! The dress I'm wearing is Modcloths Chain Letter Dress, an idea thought up by Starr of A Thought Is A Blossom. I'd been following the dress since Starr's post and all of the other fabulous ladies who got to style it, Rosie, Beatrice and Maria. So, when Maria of Lulu Letty asked me if I wanted to get the dress next I couldn't have been more excited! It was such a fun challenge to style the dress in my own way. So thanks Maria for making me a part of this fabulous idea! Who's the dress going to next? A lady who's pictures are always a dream and who calls Texas home, Leslie of Dalena Vintage!
I hope you all have had a lovely weekend! ;o)

    Oh my goodness Quincy, I'm sitting here laughing because your styling and photos of the dress are so much like what I had envisioned for my own photos! Haha. You look great, can't wait to get the dress and figure out a new way to style it.
