White Vintage Dress + Nude Wedges

My mom wore this dress 30 years ago and now it's aaaall mine! Thanks Mom :)

This awesome adjustable vintage dress  has a crisscross drawstring back, allowing you to customize the size (perfect for buffets!), flutter sleeves, and unique neck lace. No, not necklace, but neck lace. Check it out - it's two separate pieces attached to the dress on either side and they meet together in the middle via button. Cool, no? I love it!

Now I know not everyone's gonna love the look. I even had someone say to me today that I look like I belong on the set of Big Love. (Ahem, Mr. Fee) But no matter, it's how it makes me feel and that's what counts, and  I feel like a true lady in this.
