This is my favorite outfit of yours. EVER! The length of the dress, the collar, the knotted cardi, the pumps. AUGH!!!! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI also love the length of your dress! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteWow, the colour combo of this outfit is dazzling! Great contrast with the background! And such lovely vintage vibes! :)
ReplyDeleteso lovely! i could never tire of seeing such beauty. cheers to a fab weekend ahead lades. ♥
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favorite quotes of all time. I haven't read that book yet, but it's the next on my list after I finish Everything is Illuminated. Jonathan Safran Foer has the most amazing quotes!
ReplyDeleteAnd again, with your perfect sunlighting! I'm jealous of this "gene" you have where sun bounces right off your skin making such a pretty picture. Oh wait, YOU are wait makes a pretty picture! Hehe, you look lovely!
pretty lady... you are just lovely. <3
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I love the tied up cardigan. I have never thought about doing that. Sometimes leaving them down looks so frumpy! It looks great.
ReplyDeleteYou look completely beautiful m'dear. You sure know how to make a pair of heels look good.
ReplyDeletePs - I really love the quotes you include with each post. Each one is so beautiful and thought provoking.
Ooooo, very haunting quote. I love the juxtaposition of the brightness of your dress and cardi with the graveyard. Truly beauitful, on more than one level :)
ReplyDeleteThese photos are really pretty. I love the length of your skirt and these shoes! These shoes are a great color. This outfit is well done!

Remarkable photos my dear! These colours together are surprisingly beautiful! They contrast so well and I love how your peter pan colour peeks out! You look wonderfully old-fashioned too!
ReplyDeleteOooooh, look at you lookin' so ladylike. When I was little my mom had lots of heels like that and would put them on and think that I was such a lady and that when I grew up I would only wear shoes like them. Yeah, still waiting for it to happen to me.
ReplyDeleteyowz! I love this long length on you - you look so lovely. That fourth picture is beyond stunning.

GREAT HEELS. They look so feminine but walkable, too! And did you tie that scarf like that or did it come that way?? Either way it's so unique, I love it!

I feel like I'm in magical wonderland just looking at this outfit and these shots of you in it. Gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like not being on blogger all weekend and having this be my first post to really come to! The length of that dress is to die for, and I love the spring like shades. Definitely a nice offset to the snowy background.

ReplyDeleteI love your midi length dress & its got a collar! Perfect! Such a pretty colour combination too :)
ReplyDeleteabsolutely beautiful! I love that dress/skirt.. I can't manage to pull off something that long.. maybe it's because of my hair? I want it to grow out so badly! Yours is glorious! :)
ReplyDeletelove, polly
this is so ladylike and lovely. i swear, you have the prettiest clothes! & i love the way you've tied your cardigan, just a warning, i'll probably steal that idea! <3
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit not only because of the color pairing, but because its completely different from what I've been seeing everywhere. The short cardigan with the long dress and heels is just perfect. Love it :0)
