Day 30: Silver Bells Christmas Dress

I've only just realized that I haven't shared any photos of my Christmas Tree or Decorations this year, so I decided to share a photo of one of our sweet little decorative trees (which just so happens to match my dress!). We have a modest little faux-tree, standing tall at just about 4 feet, which I'll be sure to share some photos tomorrow, but in the meantime here's a preview of what I'll be wearing tonight. It's a beautiful early 60's, silver and gold, brocade dress. I've only added one little crinoline underneath for a tiny bit of pouf, but I'm curious if by the end of this post I'll have swapped it out for a crinoline that's twice the size. Feel free to tell me if I need more pouf...I will be needing to hide the enormous dinner I plan on having tonight!

Sunday Brunch in a 60's Brocade Dress and a Copper-Tone Novelty Print

A fancy brunch deserves a fabulous brunch dress, so I had to share a couple of photos of my sister and I in our brunch dresses. My sister is wearing a beautiful, vintage, copper-tone dress. My pink dress is not as light as appears in these photographs, but I'm sure you get the idea. I've only recently been into wearing pinks, but this dress fit so well, and it was so quintessentially 60's that I couldn't pass it up. It has a fabulous kick pleat down the center, which makes it almost look more like a coat dress. I ended up breaking up the gold-stripe pattern a bit by adding that elastic waist belt, and a pair of kitten heeled, pink and tan Cole Haan flats.
P.S.I've always wanted to dye my hair the color of that gorgeous Japanese Maple in the photos!
