I have had this dress for quite a few months now but I haven't really worn it. Some days I would put it on but I just wasn't quite feeling it. I loved the colours but I just wasn't sure what I wanted to pair with them. Then I realized that this cardigan and these tights matched the dress really closely! This was a very exciting day for me, I don't get out much.
On another note, this was actually my first attempt at taking outfit photos during the day with my studio lights. Normally I do it at night so that I don't get mixed lighting but it was really rainy out the other day and the living room was super dark. I closed the curtains, flicked on my lights and I was pleasantly surprised with the results! In case you are wondering about my lighting set up or what my lights look like, I posted a bit about that this morning.
So here's to wearing something new and taking outfit photos on a dark, rainy day!
Things I love about this outfit:
ReplyDeleteEverything.
Everything looks so vinnnnnnntage! Loving every bit of it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, beautiful shoes <3 Since I have huge feet, I never get to wear girly shoes :c
I REALLY dig this dress. You could even go Mad Men style, do a little beehive and wear those super sassy tights with the seam in the back.
ReplyDeleteYou're just the absolute cutest ever.
ReplyDeleteLOVE this dress ... and the complete outfit.
ReplyDeleteThe vintage dress is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWow! This look is fantastic on you!
ReplyDeleteThe lighting is so natural looking. I'm trying to learn more about photography. Yours is such an inspiration!
I love that dress and the way you teamed it with the tights and shoes.
ReplyDeleteI would have had no idea that you had used studio lighting. Great job!

ReplyDeletelighting looks good. If anything (and i hope your not offended my adding this) your complexion looks a little washed out in comparison to your photos normally? still look great though!
