Vintage, Vines

Yesterday, the mister, the in-laws, and I attended the New Vintage Wine Festival, where we sampled some lovely food & wine! One of my favourite highlights: We were driven into (and out of) the vineyard in vintage taxis!  Fun! Of course, I had to wear some vintage, too! My new fave 30s dress!

    thank you, dolls! Rueby, this was a deadstock find--one of the mint "time capsule" ones I was tweeting about the other day. Miraculously, it not only had that bow and belt buckle intact, but it was in my exact size--so exact it was like it was custom made. Love when the stars align and you find a frock like that!

    Oh. My. God. That dress absolutely gorgeous! The colors are great and in general it just looks wonderful on you!! I can't believe you found this gem deadstock!
    Pure loveliness. Also, that vineyard trip sounds like a blast, vineyards are pretty much always very scenic places (as the pictures do show!).

    Looks like a super day, and your dress is amazing, like you say, when the stars align.... the shoulder line is very flattering and the whole effect is very fresh and pretty. No-one wears vintage 30s with your flair. xxx
