Thursday Threads - 50's Style

Things I love:
Dresses
50's Style
Sales

Imagine my excitement when I find all three of these in one.

This dress is one of my favorites. 
It goes right above the knee, has a slight sweetheart cut, has a wonderful waistline, and a perfect bow.
It was also on sale. I was in love. 
The only problem- it was size medium, and the last one left.
You see, I am part of the IBTC (Itty Bitty Titty Committee)
This dress had a lot of extra room up there..
I bought it and decided to fix it a bit.

I may not be able to impress much in the chest area..
but Brad sure was impressed when I came out with a good fitting dress,
when it had looked like a tent before.
I'll take what I can get.

This outfit is very simple.
Just a dress and some shoes.
I like it like that.

Floral Dress- Mosa Cozy
Grey Faux Suede Heels- Charlotte Russe
