My friend told me I looked like Marilyn Monroe… somehow I just don’t see it :) But I can see how this looks very vintage/1950s with the full circle skirt and polka dots! The shoes are actually vintage from an annual pop-up thrift store and one of my best purchases ever! I wore them so much when I was younger (high school? maybe early college) that I’ve had to have them repaired twice. The skirt is fairly recent from Forever 21’s Twist collection. When I saw it in the store I knew I loved the pattern but the poufy mesh puffed sleeves had to go — I’ve seen the original dress look great on people but cap sleeves never look good on me, my shoulders are far too broad! I blame too many gymnastics and swimming lessons!
Old Navy shirt, Forever 21 skirt (it used to be a dress), Target belt, Penneys tights, Ferragamo shoes.
