CHERRY DRESS


Today I crawled out of bed to go to my father's birthday lunch and now I'm making myself ready to go and perform at Club Wanted, as well as to check out the bands and our guest star for the night; Mimi de Frou Frou.

I'm being smart and bit lazy in the same time and will wear the same dress for both occasions, only change to darker lips, lighter stockings and red heels and let the locks out for the evening. I had my hair pin curled under the beret the wole day so I'm about to open up some huge locks now. (I figured a beret works better to wear to a restaurant than the scarf I normally roll around my head to keep my curls in place. I wear a beret that's big and loose enough to fit standing pin curls on the top of the head, although they do get a bit flat of course :)

My cherry dress is as comfy as it's lovely and it's from Big Beautiful Barbara Brown.

I wouldn't have guessed that you have pin curls under the beret! You hid them well. ;)Pretty dress!

Love the dress! You should wear some cute red heels with it. But of course, sometimes less is more.

Minkä kokoinen tuo mekko on? Olen itsekin katellut noita, mutten ole uskaltanut tilata, kun en tiedä mikä koko sopisi. Itellä on pituutta 175cm ja tissit on jotain siinä b:n ja c:n välillä, meneekö yhtään yksiin oman kokosi kanssa?

Anniina : yes it's a decorative way to hide pin culrs! Of coures I didn't pin the hair in the front, I rolled it beck and fastened it with clips since I was going to wear the hair like that when loose too.

FRivolos Flapper : thanks!

Anonymous 1 : yes please and I did wear it wit red patent heels in the evening :D

Anonymous 2 : Itse olen 165 ja B joten ihan yhteen ei osu, mutta ei se mittään, olen ajatellu tehdä tästä pienen postauksen mutta maintitsenpas seull jo nyt; sieltä saa tilattua omiin mittojen mukaan ilman lisääkustannuksia! Eli otat vain rinnan ja vyötärönympäryys (ja käden sekälantion jos malli niin vaatii) ja merkkaat mitat Made to Measure kohtaan! Täydellinen palvelu!
