Can't help but love my mom for getting me this dress for my birthday!  I had looked it over tons of times when Bernie Dexter first released it (I wasn't digging the underbust bow), but it wasn't until I tried it on at Unique Vintage that I fell in love.  My mom knew how much I loved this dress and was sweet enough to get it for me.  With its classic fit and lightweight fabric, this dress can easily take you from winter to spring.  Unless you live in southern California like me, where everything in your wardrobe can be worn all year long.  Either way, it's a perfect fit and I hope it comes in more prints/colors in the future!











Dress- Bernie Dexter
Shoes- Bettie Page
Brooch- c/o Erstwilder
Petticoat- Malco Modes
Lipstick- c/o Anastasia Beverly Hills (in Candy Apple)

I tend to be between size extra small and small in Bernie Dexter dresses, but I'll usually order the small to be safe.  Since I had the opportunity to try this on in store, the small was a perfect fit!  I love the intricate pleating on the skirt and the bodice has some sort of magic that flatters your bust like nothing else!  Oh, and like most other Bernie dresses, it has pockets.  We all know how useful and exciting those are.  This dress, and everything else on Bernie's site, is currently 20% off with code Bernie13!  Valid until the end of this month.

Bianca and I are recovering from a couple of colds, which seems to be going around like crazy.  I can handle being sick, but Bianca turns into some crazy unmanageable monster.  She stays up super late and wakes up a dawn, which means she's incredibly cranky when she's awake.  Let's just say I'm desperately hoping she gets better soon!
