Such a great look for this transitional time of year.<br /><br />All the dresses look great on you, but (with apologies to the Butterick) I think my favorite is the New Look. The way you've combined the ivory and blue = amazing. <br /><br />[And I admit I prefer the longer leg line one gets without contrast at the hem. /shorter person hangup] <br /><br />I can't even comprehend that the knockout Vogue is a FD Dress. My brain won't go beyond thinking about how gorgeous it looks on you to consider it has non-decorative purposes!Vixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08676924453001061927noreply@blogger.com
