This is one of my most favorite dresses ever. I wish I could have it copied in every color and type of lace imaginable so that I could wear it every day. It makes me stand up straighter and feel wonderfully ladylike. I hope more like this one find their way into my dress closet, if only to make all the other dresses super jealous.

You always have the most beautiful photos! That dress is gorgeous on you, and since you have that one... can I have the one hanging behind you? ;)
Beautiful dress! I'm a sucker for anything lacey :)
What an INCREDIBLE dress, I love that about things that fit perfectly, they totally improve your posture and the way you carry yourself!
This dress is perfect. The shape, the lace, the tiers... Amazing.
Exquisite! Your hair compliments all your various outfits so well. There is just something about lace produced before the 70's that is so lovely.
The dress looks so cute on you.the colour combination is beautiful and the little volant is supercute!
you look like another Alice somehow :)

Margaret: Thank you, dear! I frequent Thrift Town (in the Mission), the large Goodwill on Van Ness, and any thrift stores I find outside of the city because they are usually less picked over.
Oh man! That dress is absolutely STUNNING! Forget about the other dresses! Color ME jealous! Black lace and neutrals are my weakness.

Not only is that dress stunning on you, the one hanging behind you is absolutely to die for! You always have the nicest clothes.

Cuuuutie! This is an example of exquisite lace!
What a dress! It's so Man Men, and so fantastic - it would be more than tempting to wear it every day!

It's a gorgeous dress - not innocent but beautifully modest. I can see why you love it.
