So, we have my best going out ensemble here - Shane & I were on our way out to see Rufus Wainwright in concert in Wellington, so so SO fabulous. And I figure if you're going to go out, why not do it properly & wear your prettiest dress.
Dress - Karen Walker. The best trade me score EVER. It still had labels on it (which read $740), and I bought it for $100. Amazing. I love it - it's made of silk & I seriously feel like a princess when I have it on.
Black Crinoline Petticoat - another trade me buy, from a very clever lady who makes them. Makes the dress look even more super gorgeous.
Fishnet tights & favourite shoes :)
My absolute favourite outfit. Looking at the pics makes me want to go and put it on now, but I don't know that it's the best outfit for playing in the garden with Jarvis & the chooks!
BEEEEAUTIFUL!! i love it, you look gorgeous and WOW!
ReplyDeleteWow, fabulous! An amazing dress and it totally suits you, all sweet and lovely. I especially adore that top portrait, in a way it seems almost old-timey. You still get the best photos with film I reckon, even with all the fancy pants stuff you can do with digital. And is that a little foot tattoo I spy...?
ReplyDeleteThanks!! I agree completely about film, I'd forgotten how gorgeous the big SLR was to use 'til the little digital broke & I had to pull it out. Unfortunately now I'm craving a digital SLR and that aint gonna happen!
ReplyDeleteHe he..not a sneaky tattoo, I'm way too woosie, it's the seam on my tights ;)
PS...it's at the Wellesley Boutique Hotel, which is gorgeously old timey. I wanted to live there forever!
ReplyDeleteThat is one glorious dress- and what a bargain! you look soooooo beautiful and princcessy (but in a good way..) I have dress envy.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - that dress is SUPER!! Your whole outfit is totally Princess-ly! Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog.
