50's Polka Dot Dress from Dear Dorothy

I won a beeeautiful Dear Dorothy vintage-inspired dress and hair bow on YCLAD Magazine last October. I love love love everything about the dress--- the color, design and how it fits. The lovely Laura of Dear Dorothy was so kind as to hand-deliver it to me. She's such a sweetheart. It's definitely going to be my go-to outfit this summer. So retro. So stunning.

It is definitely for people who love to experiment with different styles. It gives one an edge and also a geeky look(in a cute way). If you're looking for a cheap vintage eyewear here in Cape Town, you can go to Pedro's Bitchin' Eyewear.

Pleated Skirts

These delicate skirts are very flattering. A schoolgirl staple that has become a trend this year. Could be of chiffon, wool, tweed or lace, it flatters and adds volume in the right places. For a chic look, pair with a plain white tee and accessorize with a slim belt. Here are some of the pretty pleated skirts that I found online. There's one from Lollyloves which they're selling for R300 and another one which I bought from the lovely Janece of Vintage Lover.

Fly to Neverland with the Peter Pan Collar

I am so obsessed with Peter Pan collars right now. I mean, what's not to like? It's flirty, sweet and cute. Reminds me of the 60's when Twiggy used to wear it. You can also spot celebrities in the likes of Alexa Chung, Rachel Bilson and Emma Watson sporting this trend. If you're having difficulty looking for cute dresses with Peter Pan collars here in Cape Town, look no more. Babette Clothing stocks authentic and remade vintage clothes. I was browsing their site just early this year and I just fell in love with everything. Mr.Price is also keeping up with the trends and are selling vintage-inspired dresses with the girly collar. Check out these photos and let it take you to Neverland :)
