black is back

While exploring the hidden gems yet to be unearthed on Etsy last night it suddenly dawned on me that I've been doing the majority of my shopping via the internet over the last few months. I'm not entirely certain why that is. It may, in part, be due to the fact that my new job is not as near the Beverly Center (ie: forever 21 and H&M) as it once was so I don't go there much at all. I think it's also that I've been longing for more unique items that aren't going to be on every third girl I pass on the street, you know? Then there is the Vintage factor - so much vintage online, so little time (and too little $$)!

Speaking of which, I recently found this daisy of a dress on ye old Etsy and it was even better than anticipated once it arrived in my mailbox! It is a 1960s Tuxedo Dress and I am smitten, people. I hope you'll agree!


outfit details:
dress - Etsy
shoes - Seychelles (circa 2008)
tights - primark

This dress reminds me a little of a mime which reminds me of this song...

I have been searching Etsy for a dress just like this for, well forever! I'm so mad that I missed out on it, but it looks amazing on you. I'll just have to keep looking!

I wish that dress was "mime" ba-da-bum.
Love it!

Goooorgeous! You have inspired me to wear my heart tights today (but I secretly wish they were bows).
