My Christmas dress

In March, why not^^ Well I hadn't had the opportunity of taking pics of it until today hence the late post. After seeing and falling in love with Camelias and Crinolines' Christmas dress last year I got totally obsessed with poinsettias fabric and I desperately wanted to sew myself a vintage dress out of it. So imagine how I felt when I came across this on etsy:


It has red AND pink poinsettias, roses, holy, buds, pine cones and even peonies, it's light as lawn and I had 5 yards of it for $5 :) I used my favourite Advance pattern and here's what I got:



It's such a fun dress to wear, even though it's Christmas-themed I don't think it shows too much, especially when accessorised with simple, natural accessories:


See you!

  2. Very pretty! Doesn't look too Christmasy at all, the way you styled it. :)

  3. It looks great. I love how the pink makes the Christmas-ness more toned down so you can wear it any time of the year.

  6. Ha, I'm with you, Christmas fabric doesn't look too Christmassy and totally appropriate for all the time. I love pine cones and red, pink and green together whenever! :) I think this looks wonderful, so adorable!! You are the master of the perfect little 40s dress!!
