Vintage Dress

This is my "new" vintage dress.  I think it's late 40s early 50s - and in great condition for being 60+
years old!  I bought it at Decades in Salt Lake and it fits like a glove.
Heart rhinestone buttons.
 Cute matching belt.
Darling button detail down the front opening.  I wore the dress to church yesterday with my back seam nylons and my American Eagle shoes (that look like they're from the 40s) and  I was complemented for looking like I just stepped out of a magazine :)

you Look awesome! Wish I could see your face silly. Your figure is perfect for the vintage look, They always exaggerated that hourglass figure and you have it naturally! Lucky lady!

You really are a step out of the mags. That era's couture is very flattering on you. I love that you include the whole ensemble (nylons, shoes, hair).
Woulda liked to see your face too :)

Did Anna really say that having an hourglass figure is "lucky". Hmmm my jeans would say otherwise! HAHAHA! Of course my hourglass has a few extra rolls.
K-that dress is adorable! LOVE IT! It's totally perfect for you.

I love the dress. It's so much fun to have you as a family member, Dearest Sarah.
What are American Eagle Shoes? A Brand, a style, a color? I don't remember "American Eagle" shoes.
I loved the ankle strap and the platform soles, the wedgies (so new at that time.)
