{dress/belt/bag: vintage; shoes: MIA shoes (get the same pair HERE); cuff: Sorrelli (get the it HERE); watch: Michael Kors (get it HERE); sunnies: HoH1960 (get them HERE); necklace: Max&Chloe (get one HERE)}

I wore this lovely vintage number over the weekend because the weather was beautiful, and I was in the mood to strut my stuff in a great vintage dress. Hey why not, right? This dress has been "marinating" in my closet for close to a year now (if you follow my blog, you know what I mean by that), so I was excited to pull it out and wear it. The pleated detailing and the print is just amazing, and the dress is in pristine condition. Love it. I had contemplated shortening it, but I still don't think I'm ready to make that move. We'll see...

I hope everyone is having a great week so far, cannot believe it's almost Valentine's Day! This year ia already off to a quick start!

    I know I say this every time you wear orange, but you look FANTASTIC in it!! That maxi dress is amazing. And the condition does look pristine! Don't shorten it. I think it looks great long. <3
