Vintage black Sunday Dress
Click to Enlarge image
A quick trip to the thrift store this weekend resulted in a mid-century modern dresser (for less than $10!!!!) and this sweet black vintage dress. I decided to wear it on Sunday for some drinks and veggie bbq at my favorite gay bar in uptown.
While I adore the shape of this - I’m considering a few alterations. I will probably shorten the hem a few inches (to about knee length) and I’m going to switch out the button on the chest pocket to something a little more flashy. Regardless - it’s a very easy-to-wear dress that looks really lovely with little effort.
