1940's Novelty Print Dress, Croatia Vintage

Hello lovelies! I apologize for the lack of posting the last few days. A never ending migraine had me feeling blahhh... but receiving this 1940's dress in the mail from Caitlin of Croatia Vintage made me feel a much better! Croatia Vintage is one of my favorites shops on Etsy and probably my most shopped. When I saw this 40's beauty I told Caitlin I'd love to fix her up and make her pretty again. So, that's just what I'm going to do! Those details and that print can not go to waste. I can't wait to share her with you when she's done!

Have a lovely week! xo

Hello!

This past week, I made this here dress ;) It's become the nautical dress I've always wanted! I didn't set out to make the nautical dress of always wanted, but I'm glad it turned out that way. The buttons are some from the 1940's that I've been saving for quite awhile. I think their perfect for this dress!

Oh another note.. for the past couple of months I've been attempting to grow my pixie into a short bob. Though, right now it's driving me a bit crazy! I have a hair appointment for Tuesday. Do you think I should just get a trim, and keep growing my pixie into a bob.. or should I chop it all off?

Have a lovely weekend! xo

Hello lovelies! I hope everyone had a nice weekend!

The dress I'm wearing is one I made a couple months back. It was somewhat inspired by one of my favorite dresses from Lena Hoschek's S/S collection. I used and early 70's pattern that I had bought on Etsy in the spring. I'm happy with the way it turned out, but next time I think I'll use a lighter weight fabric. Unfortunately making this dress didn't seem to diminish my desire to own the Lena Hoschek dress it was inspired by, hehe.

Also, you might be able to tell these pictures are a little fuzzy. Well, that's because I'm still using Jonny's phone to do outfit posts. I'm hoping to have my new camera by Christmas or maybe sooner! So, until them camera phone pics it is, lol. Talk to you soon!
