all dressed up

jezzy belle's vintage dress, hue polka-dot tights, vintage mary-jane heels, gifted hat

This lovely handmade vintage dress Deb from Jezzy Belle's sent me deserves so much more than my regular old Docs-and-leggings winter routine. I thrifted these low mary-jane heels last weekend and thought they were a perfect match for the dress. So I just... got dressed up. And stayed in my house and took photos of my outfit! Yes! This dress will see the (literal) light of day in a couple months but for now why not have fun and dress up in Spring clothes just to stay in my comfy warm apartment? I'm sure it's an effective treatment for Seasonal Affective Disorder. And not a waste of time at ALL, nooooo...

By the way, there's a buncha great vintage for sale over at Jezzy Belle's. This precious prom dress is catching my eye, along with this sweet sailor dress. There's even a cherished Castlecliff lucite goldfish necklace. If you buy it you can be just like me!

PS - I think people hate it when fashion bloggers talk about the weather? I've seen people say this before. Too bad. The weather has a HUGE say in how I get dressed! It's my excuse for not prancing around in open jackets and bare legs like half the bloggers I follow are doing right now.

I paid a visit to The Garment District when it opened on Tuesday and picked up a few things, including this button-down. This is the new thrift store operating out of the old Froggie's building. So far I think I like it! It's very organized and CHEAP! I think almost everything is about five bucks, a welcome change these days, when you can't find a single thing at Value Village for under eight dollars. I'm not sure if anything can fill the hole in my heart where the Froggie's costume section used to be (lol dramatic much) but the Garment District does ease the pain a little bit.
