Dress: Vintage Shoes: Frye

This dress was the best result to sitting around at a "vintage" faire for a whole day - I bought it at another vendor's booth. Regardless of the back story, its a wonderful piece that I've been dying to wear. Its a little light & airy, and I could have benefited from wearing a coat, but its rare that I find a vintage dress that fits this perfectly. 

I hope that you all had a great Thanksgiving. I'm still sorting through my photos from the grandparents' house, and will be posting the spectacle soon.

Every time I see how you rock your clothes I just keep wondering why hasn't someone contacted you to hire you as a model or for a magazine, you have far much more style than what I've seen in magazines. =)
