A Pretty Dress for a Pretty Day

Sunday was just perfect weather wise so it needed a really pretty dress!

 I love a nice 50s dress! And this one has pockets!

It's Simplicity 1097 from 1955.

I originally made this dress for Thanksgiving last year, but with a a different belt and hat, it's almost like having a new dress!

It was a bit breezy so my bangs are all over the place!

I love this little pink hat! The print on my dress has black, gray, white, pink and purple so there's loads of accessory opportunities!

I really want to make another version of this dress in something a bit more drape-y. This fabric is quite stiff so I don't even need a crinoline!

Wishing you all some lovely early summer days for pretty dresses!
