Dreaming of Spring



For todays post, I am featuring the beautiful vintage reproduction line Loco Lindo.  This dress is the stunning 1940's inspired Rita Dress with White Rose Buds.

This dress has me feeling like it's already spring, even though it has been abnormally cold in San Diego (by cold, I mean in the lower 60's...).  I usually don't wear a whole lot of white items, but Loco Lindo's line of clothing has changed my mind.  Not to mention, I'm an absolute sucker for a good floral dress.

This dress is made of elegant french rayon crepe; therefore, it's lightweight and soft, but still of high-quality that you can feel.  It has a drawstring in back to adjust and nip in the waist.  I took a size small, and it's very true to size.  All in all, a very flattering piece that can be easily dressed up or down.




Just like any vintage outfit, it's never complete without 100% nylons. Obviously, I had to color coordinate, so I went with my favorite Secrets in Lace Signature RHT nylons with a red welt. 


I mean, who doesn't love a cheeky nylon peek?


For styling, I wore vintage accessories, other than my heels, which were purchased from Urban Outfitters a few years back.  I switched my typically blue-based red lipstick for an orange based lip, one of my all-time favorites; Lady Danger by MAC.

Bewitching Style

Happy October, lovelies.  The season of bewitching style... For today's blog, I am featuring my favorite lingerie brand, Secrets in Lace , in a picture-heavy post to show just how versatile their pieces can be. I am wearing the Angela Point D'Esprit Blouse over the Andrea Vintage Strapless Longline  bra.  I wear these pieces often, and they always receive endless compliments.  Also, as you may have already guessed, I am wearing a SIL garter belt and nylons; the  Intrigue Garter Belt  with the Dana Glamour heel  in beige (backseams are my favorite, and oh-so classic).  To change the look up and add even more Va-Va-Voom , I switched out the blouse for a vintage necklace to match my earrings, and faux leather opera length gloves to perfectly compliment my faux leather pencil skirt - you can actually find these on Amazon!  My heels are Louboutin "New Very Prive" and were a perfect pick for this elegant, vampy loo...

Keeping it Classic

Happy February!  This month marks one year since I began this blog! Also... how on earth did January fly by so quickly?!  With this being my first post of the year, I would like to set a different tone from my usual retro/ pin-up/ vintage looks.  I definitely don't stick to one strict style or play by any fashion rules [these days... yes, I was once a "vintage only" all-around rockabilly gal... and even a devoted punk rock teen].  Now, I just love a good mix of modern and classic pieces, sometimes with edgy elements thrown in, and I want to showcase more of that here.  NOTE: That doesn't mean I won't still stay true to the typically vintage-inspired posts too.  There will still be many of those! So let's get right into it... my top is by the UK brand  Lady K Loves .  They have really cute pieces that are great for building up a vintage-inspired wardrobe, or even incorporating into classy everyday looks.  This top i...

For Sweethearts

Hello, loves!  After much contemplation (procrastination?), I finally have a picture filled blog post, as promised!  If you follow me on Instagram , you'll know that I frequently do style/O.O.T.D. posts, however, I only showcase a couple of photos from a complete set.  Therefore, the purpose of this blog will be to provide much more content, as well as keep up with requested inquiries on look specifics and give more detailed feedback on each look.  It's been a long time coming and I'm excited to begin this project with you guys!  Since we are honing in on Valentine's Day, I figured this would be the perfect opportunity to kick off with a themed post  - what better than a baby pink dress paired with complimentary ivory lingerie?  Whether you will be celebrating Valentine's Day with a loved one, friends or family, or by treating yourself (which I highly encourage), it cannot be denied that this is a perfect opportunity to dress up! ...
