Dress? Vintage (from my own shop, oops) Shoes? Aldo (old) Clutch? Vintage Pics? ADarlingandADear

I think not posting in three weeks is called Slacker Blogging. I prefer to call it Blogging When You Feel Like It because after you've been blogging for many years the idea that you can just blog when you want to is quite novel and freeing.
To be honest, I've had some busy and stressful weeks and my writing really suffers when I'm stressed. Not like I'm writing high brow literature here but I like to write something a little more compelling than 'this is my new dress'.

Anyways, this is my new dress.

Yeah, I went there...

I stole the dress from the shop for a wedding we had a few weekends ago. I'm surprised it even made it into the shop; sequins, long sleeves... it's kinda my thing. No one bought it in two months it was hanging up and so, predictably, I just took it home with me where it belonged all along.
This 70's dress was originally a maxi dress but I thought hemming it to just below the knee would add some elegance. Because sometimes I need that little bit of elegance to hide the hot mess I am (I feel like I am?) inside...

That dress looks amazing on you- I can't even begin to imagine hemming a sequin maxi, but it definitely paid off! Also, I like how that glass of wine magically appears in a couple. ;)

Nice! Welcome back. Missed you. Sorry for the stress, and hoping things are better.

What a pretty dress. Its design really flatters you. I agree with your point that we should blog when we want, not on any schedule. When we have energy and enthusiasm, our blogs bloom; forcing posts doesn't work.

I'm still a regular follower. It's a lot of work, running a shop, running a business, posing for photos, being a good wife, mother to kitties, etc. etc. You can't do it all without getting stressed. Try to get some relaxing time in!

Thinking of you and wishing you well.
