Dress - Trashy Diva
Shoes - Novo |
Every now and then I pop into the local garden center to pick up some plants to replace the ones I've killed. I love plants but I am terrible at remembering to water them so normally I will buy three things and if I'm really good two of them end up surviving. At the moment I am looking at buying some nice luscious green plants to put on our veranda and turn the area into a nice spot for drinking cider and cocktails, however I might have to get some plastic plants as well as real ones to complete the look. Knowing my complete inability to keep up with watering, the plastic plants stand a better chance!
I've had this Trashy Diva dress for nearly four years now, I think, and it was the first one of their dresses I ever bought. I wear it a lot and it's still going strong with no signs of wear - a testament to how well made Trashy Diva dresses are! The reason I will always buy repro is because I know I am getting a quality investment piece that will last me for years and will remain timeless while fashion continues to change.
I am the same when it comes it comes to gardening. I certainly don't have a green thumb! The idea of a nice leafy and green place to relax and drink cocktails does sound very nice though! And gorgeous dress, it is always fab to have those timeless wardrobe pieces.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about buying repro, I know the styles never date! I have quite a few dresses that I bought a few years ago when the 50s 'style' dresses came back big in mainstream fashion. I still have them today! I found that target used to have quite a few really nice dresses, although the fashion has changed now.
ReplyDeleteGardening can be so hard! Maybe ask the assistants what is really hardy, there are a few really pretty resilient plants out there.
Wahh I suck at gardening too. You look stunning, love the print on that dress! <3

Ah, this makes me again feel huge pangs of regret that I didn't manage to get my hands on a Hell Bunny dress with parrot print I was after before it went out of stock in the UK. Le sigh. I want a parrot dress too! Those shoes are gorgeous too... and I love the idea of taking photos in a plant nursery! x
ReplyDeleteThe pockets on this dress always melt my fashion loving heart. The detailing is just so delightful and of the sort that one really would have encountered on a mid-century frock.
ReplyDeleteCharmingly pretty photos and outfit, dear gal. I hope that January is treating you splendidly and that you're having a great weekend!
