Miss Fortune- Allure Tropical

Alluring is a great way to describe this dress from Miss Fortune, hence it's name Allure! Straight from the UK, from one of my favorite designers.  This dress has it all. It has a very flattering faux wrap skirt and a fitted halter top lined bodice. The bamboo buckle adds to the tropical feel!  It has a back zipper.  The material is cotton, so make sure to measure as it doesn't have stretch to it.  I am very partial to anything with tiki or tropical print and this dress is a gorgeous must have if you are like me!






I love the length of the Allure, which falls right below the knee. 






Next time you need to bring out your inner tiki goddess, put on your Allure Dress and hit the town... or the islands!


Available at missfortune.co.uk.  The Allure Dress comes in wide variety of other super fun prints too.  







Thank you Brooklyn Brat Images for the beautiful pictures!

Pineapple Tiki Tea Dress- Lady V London

Are you looking for the perfect summer dress? Look no further, the Pineapple Tiki Print Tea Dress from Lady V London is here! It's a gorgeous classic 50's style dress with a really fun pineapple and tiki style print. The dress features a full circle skirt that is large enough to wear a petticoat if you choose.It falls around the knee area. This dress has a high neck in the front and the back is a lower v cut with a hidden back zipper. The fitted bodice has a tie belt attached. It is a very flattering dress with a little stretch to it. You could dress this up or go a little more casual as it is very versatile.





For my look, I was going for a very tropical tiki party vibe.  I wanted to show a fun dressy way to wear this.




As always, the quality from Lady V London is superb!  Manufactured in the heart of London, they are able to oversee the work and ensure quality control. You will be very impressed with your purchase.  Check your measurements before you order to get the best fit possible. 







I'm wearing Bettie Page Shoes, that I snagged from Zullily for a great price!




The jewelry is from Splendette and it's perfect for this occasion and style. My hair flower is Shazam Vintage Pin Up Hair Flowers.




We had an amazing home to get these shots at! Thank you Dixie Pin-Up Studios for the great sets!  Thank you Brooklyn Brat Images for the photos!

Dolly & Dotty and Sunflowers

Nothing says Summer more than a bright yellow polka dot dress and a field full of sunflowers! This year for my trip to The Anderson's Sunflowers, I knew I wanted to wear this dress! It is the Wendy Retro Polka Dot Dress from Dolly & Dotty. This fifties style dress has a v neckline, fitted bodice and a full swing circle skirt. It has gathers around the waist and at the shoulder straps. The material is very comfy and slightly stretchy as well. There is plenty of room for a petticoat if you want, but I chose not to wear one for this shoot.  If yellow isn't your thing, this dress is available in several other colors too.








The design team at Dolly & Dotty really do have love for the vintage style fashion they produce. It shows in the many styles and patterns they offer.  Weather you are looking for edgier rockabilly or a day dress Dolly & Dotty will have something for you!  They are based out of the UK, but ship worldwide.

I accessorized with bangles, necklace and earrings from Splendette. They have the most amazing vintage inspired jewelry and many different looks to accessorize your wardrobe!
