Vintage beret from a pennsylvania auction, donated by Sandra D. Vintage doiley turned collar and ankle boots from eBay.
This day belongs to tashav.
What’s this?
During Sheena’s year-long challenge, we made 365 limited edition copies of the little black dress. U.P friends who purchased a dress could ‘own’ a day from Sheena’s dailies, as a way to memorialize their support. The funds raised from dress sales were also put towards supporting the kids :)

My friend told me about your blog. I know Beacon’s Closet well, also! My blog is called www.yearwithoutshopping.com,–no shopping for clothes, shoes, or handbags for a year, and kind of for a similar purpose. I also write about consumerism, current events and books. I’m not the model you are, though, and I haven’t put up photos of me yet! Great idea!
Posted 3866 days ago.
Lovely lacey collar!

The hat looks really weird, probably because it’s dark and so is your hair. Gives it a weird silhouette. Really cute otherwise
Posted 3866 days ago.
This is a favorite of mine so far. And that says something, because I’ve loved them all.
Posted 3866 days ago.
This is incredibly cute, I love your use of tights and socks.
Posted 3866 days ago.
adorable!
Have you considered selling the dress on your site with a % going towards your charity? I’m sure there are plenty of readers who buy it!
Posted 3866 days ago.
Love the expression that goes with it. Priceless and practiced for a good reason!
Posted 3866 days ago.
Gorgeous!
Posted 3865 days ago.
Goes wwell with the hat.
Posted 3865 days ago.
I love this outfit! Simple but really cool!
Posted 3865 days ago.
I just spent the whole morning going through all your pics!~ You’re amazing, an inspiration! Stockings or socks like yours are a rare sight, over here in Malaysia.
Posted 3865 days ago.
Have been following for quite some time. Love it!
Posted 3865 days ago.
What a versatile dress…I want to see it with a pair of flared jeans and sneakers…keep up the good work!
Posted 3865 days ago.
i don’t really like the cream collar & white sock combo.
Posted 3865 days ago.
The doiley for a collar is inspirational! C’est magnifique! x
Posted 3865 days ago.
Sweet.

The photographs remind me of Vanessa Winship’s

Personally, I would have gone for a cute pair of Mary Janes to really top off that “school girl” look – but this is so cute!
Posted 3864 days ago.
That doily…. ew.
Posted 3862 days ago.
Reminds me of Wednesday Addams only not in a morbid way. Very cute. I wouldn’t normally care much for the shoes, but they work somehow. Great pairing.
