We had such a beautiful day with temperatures worthy of spring and the most gorgeous sunshine. I jumped at the opportunity to take some pictures of my opera dress and my new awesome coat. I'm really pleased with the dress even though it has cost me many more nerves than expected. If I'm ever really bored, I might take out the zip and replace it a little lower down as it is currently not in an ideal position. However, I strongly belueve I have more than enough hair to cover it up ;)
After my last black coat died a violent death during my cycle accident last week, I was overjoyed to find this one in a charity shop a few days ago. However, I wasn't sure if I could justify buying it at this time of year but this morning the Mister and I took a walk past the shop and I could not resist any more. It was still there and it only cost me 30 £! It seems like winter is over for the time being but I am just going to pretend it isn't and all will be good. Now I only need to find the perfect belt to wear with the coat.
The dress looks fabulous! And the coat is awesome :)
ReplyDeleteHoly Moly!! I cannot believe you made that. For a dress like that it would be upwards of $200 in boutiques so congrats!!
