WHAT I WORE:
DRESS > MADE BY MOI
NECKLACE > MODERN VINTAGE STYLE
ANKLE BOOTS > NEW LOOK
As regular readers will know, I just love to sew. Not long ago I found some great vintage patterns at a car-boot sale. It was the perfect excuse to use some vintage fabric I had squirreled away and just a day later I'd completed making this 1960s style dress! What do you think?
I, personally, love how it's turned out! It's proof that with the right pattern and fabric, you can recreate certain vintage fashion in no time at all, and it was much more thrifty than shopping on the high street. The only thing I would change is to make the sleeves more bell shaped, but apart from that, it's perfect and I feel very proud wearing it.
I kept my styling simple for this OOTD by pairing the dress with some thick black tights, lace-up ankle boots and a beautiful purple quartz pendant necklace from Modern Vintage Style. My hair was put up in a messy beehive, a huge change for me as I usually hide behind a hat or just leave it down.
If you don't know them, you should absolutely check out Modern Vintage Style. They have a beautiful collection of antique and handmade jewellery, perfect for any vintage/jewellery lover. And watch this space if that purple quartz necklace has caught your eye. We will be giving one lucky reader the chance to win it! More details on that will be coming very soon.
