Daffy

I don't think there is ever a more thrilling sight than bright yellow after a gray and drizzly winter.... If this dress don't make ya go WaZoooo! Baby! you need some caffeine or a better outlook on life! it's a 60s fancy fancy dress...It's fitted, it's floating, it's sparkly....It's Neon Green Yellow!



I picture a saucy redhead with red lips and quite a few freckles...... paired up with black shiny sandals and a matching clutch........


Here's a pair of very shiny black sandals from MetropolisShirts

I think many folks don't want to try wearing vintage because they think all vintage clothes will make them look like a cast member of Happy Days, or  Mad Men!
The big secret is.... !!! Pair something a simple vintage accessory....with your mall clothes......  Or pair something vintage, that's kinda Wild! with very simple accessories, that are also vintage, or new.

That way you "break it up"....and you still look very nice, and nifty and not like you're in the cast for the local theater group when you are out lunching with the chicks.

How about this dress on  a brunette with a sparkly headband holding back long glossy hair and a big Aurora Borealis rhinestone pin on the shoulder, and matching AB rhinestone clip on earrings. I picture  metallic print  shoes and a shiny handbag.
