Mellow Yellow

FashionOutfits
Apr 13, 201724 Comments

I got this dress for a steal on Etsy about a year ago, I can’t believe this is my first time posting it. It’s an 80’s-does-50’s dress and as a very small-chested person, I was extremely excited to find a strapless dress that fits me. This is the kind of dress that demands a crinoline for maximum effect. So much fun! I am wearing it with Katharine Page sandals and a basket from Portugal that I also bought on Etsy. Lip color is Charlotte Tilbury’s lipgloss in Red Vixen!

    Such a beautiful dress! It looks like it has a very sturdy bodice. As a fellow flat-chested sister, I definitely feel you when it comes to finding and wearing strapless dresses like this. xx G
