Pretty in Pink

Being a ginger, I'm always cautious of the colours I can and cannot wear.  Certain shades of pink and red aren't always the most complimentary colour for my hair.  I used to shy away from pink entirely.  But as I grew older and more confident in myself and in my style, I find myself expirementing and becoming more brave.

 

 Outfit Details:

vintage 1960's dress, vintage shoes {thrifted}

vintage handbag {from my maternal grandmother}

vintage jewelry {from my paternal grandmother}

I fell in love with this dress when I first saw it at my local Goodwill.  Most of the time vintage dresses in my area are too big for me and I have to belt them to make them look good.  Not this dress.  It fit like a glove.  There's something about when a piece of clothing fits you so well that instantly boosts your confidence.  I felt like Ann-Margaret or the lovely Joan Holloway/Harris.
