Dress? Vintage (exact one on Etsy here but mine had been chopped already when I got it) Shoes? DvF 
Big cuff? c/o Unikati (hereBelt? Vintage (it's falling apart but I will wear it until it falls off...)

This dress was the best find out of a pretty dismal vintage appointment a few months ago. But, on the bright side, I got this dress out of the whole ordeal and after a 3 day soak and some work on the hacked hem, she's a beaut to wear. 
I wore it out last weekend for a perfect summer night out with some friends. 
I'm a little confused on my feelings towards this summer. It has been a little cooler than usual this year and secretly (... well, not anymore) I like it because it's really great weather to landscape in and I have only had to turn on the AC twice at the shop. I also have some great coats and boots going in the shop for the upcoming season... But as much as I am pumped to merchandise for fall and to Instagram the ever loving crap out of autumn leaves, this dress reminds me of all that is great about summer nights...

  2. Oh my goodness, this dress is so awesome, and as usually I adore how you styled it! I too have enjoyed the cooler summer, less A/C, more time enjoying time outside!

  4. Whoa, that is just stunning! You need to find a festival to attend, just to show this dress off!

    Summer is already ending over here (in the UK), and I am super upset about it - and holding out on putting tights back on until the last. possible. second!

  11. The first thing that popped into my head: You look like Cher's mom in Clueless! And in googling it, I'm totally off but the entire thing is very reminiscent. In short, you're a total betty! :)
