When Day With Evening Blending

My newest sponsor is Fancy French Cologne (where my lovely black dress is from). What's really exciting about this store are the awesome ladies who run it. They started as an indie band (Finest Dearest) and now this store is their latest venture together. Everything is hand-picked and carefully curated in their shop. For spring they have everything I love: classic dresses, interesting trench coats, and really awesome jewelry.

After browsing their shop I instantly honed-in on this dress. The lace trim is so sweet and I love the pockets and the way the fabric falls. It's super lightweight so I'm certain it will be a favorite of mine this summer when the weather really heats up. For now it's looking pretty nice layered with tights and a trench coat.

Outfit details:

Urban 1972 trench coat

Modcloth necklace

Dee Dee dress c/o Fancy French Cologne

tights, gift from my sister

Jeffrey Campbell heels c/o Modcloth

Spotted Moth purse

Clinque red, red, red lipstick

P.S. Old tutorial I made for milkmaid braids.

I know for sure that you gravitate toward pieces that have full, or high waist skirts, a 60's chic feminine vibe...

AND POCKETS.

I just realized it the other day, but you are the queen of full skirts and pockets.

I know my full skirts with pockets are the best things ever.

@Agne, thank you, but there's actually no vintage in my outfit today. I guess, I just look retro. :)
MeeshMarch 30, 2011 at 12:47 PM
That dress has a really good, classic shape. I can see how it might be mistaken for vintage! ;)

You look marvellous! I love white tights but never wear them because I'm quite clumsy, and think they'd soon be covered in dirt.

Rebecca, I absolutely love that outfit! The dress is to die for! Your dress would be something I would love to wear for New Year's Eve. I am tall however do you think flats would go well with it? I am thinking a silver ballet flats.

Rebecca, A Clothes HorseMarch 30, 2011 at 7:33 PM
@Anonymous, I think this dress will look perfect with flats and silver ones sound really nice. It hits at a nice point on the leg. I'll probably wear it with flats this summer too. :)

Hi Rebecca, love your blog. I like the coat you're wearing.
I was looking at the Modcloth dresses just now and was wondering if the material on this dress:

was the same as the raincoat you are wearing in the pictures?

@Jes, I can't say 100% for certain because I haven't seen/felt that dress, but it definitely looks just like it!

SO LOVELY! I'm such a huge fan of white tights. They make everything look all fairytake-y.
