More vintage

Reeeeeally can’t get enough of it.


Dress: Vintage (similar vintage inspired one here). Boots: Alexa Chung for Madewell (found similars here, here and here – just saw these too). Bag: Rebecca Minkoff (had for years and still love). Hat: H&M (similar here). Mini cross necklace: W shop (found a similar one here). 
I found this dress at Beacons Closet – a mecca for all vintage. It was instant love minus the massive shoulder pads which I ripped out as soon as I walked out (I do that for all these sort of dresses including this cream one which for the life of me I cannot find.  I really hope I didn’t throw it out by mistake – arrghhh!)  Wore it with the floppy hat (you’ve seen it before e.g. here and here).
As for the boots, I had to get em! They were the last ones left in my size at the shop and yes, I do have another pair of leo booties so this means I’ll be wearing leo boots for at least as long as Coronation Street.

    I really debated over whether I should get those boots, but decided against them and got the pajama top instead.

    Those look fab on you and fit you so well. And that dress has wonderful detailing. I hate when stuff has shoulder pads and always want to take them out as well.

    That dress is everything and such a twist for you to throw those leopard print boots on with it. Truly Karen only you can get away with it! I would have just gone the predictable route and dressed it up with some matching pretty heels.
