coat vintage
dress vintage
bag vintage from omnia wears
belt thrifted
shoes vintage ferragamo
I own quite a few navy polka dotted dresses and skirts and I never tire of them. This particular 1950's frock is one of my favorites, mostly for the amazing sailor collar. The little pale blue and white coat used to be knee length but I had it hemmed and then switched the buttons for these giant beauties that I found at the Vintage Fashion Expo. Those poor Ferragamo flats were in such perfect condition when I bought them but now they're all white at the toes from so much city walking, oops. I walk everywhere in San Francisco, including to and from work (which takes me 45 minutes only because my walking pace at all times is Incredibly Fast). At least these shoes are well loved!

Fantastic use of pattern! I adore the oversized buttons on the jacket. The bag is really lovely, too.

I am the same way... I can never get tired of polka dots OR stripes. SO cute. This whole get up is so adorable, I especially love the oversized buttons! Those shoesies have def. had some loving... my poor feet are going to hate me when I am an old lady always trying to walk the insane S.F hills in a platform! :) At least it's a good workout, right?!

everything about this is so perfectly you. i love it! most of my shoes are scuffed up from walking around. though, i think i'm really tough on footwear.
Oh gosh, I love the navy dotted dress with the mustard yellow tights! You have no idea how much this makes me miss the fall!

Love all the patterns, your dress is especially gorgeous! :)
I love navy dresses with white polka dots, and this is no exception. Super cute. Too bad about the Ferragamos--maybe you could take them in somewhere to get them fixed?
Love the polka dots and those little sheer sleeves are a cute touch.
I particularly love the wicker bag. The outfit overall really suits you and I like the colour combination. I also love the fact that everything you're wearing is vintage or thrifted. A girl after my own heart!
cute look! you look like lea michele.
