Easter Dresses



This photo was taken in the 60's and I almost wish I could travel back in time so I could get all frilly and make a major statement with a big flower covered hat! (I would most likely dress like the first lady in the peach!) Ladies rocked gloves, flipped-out hairdos and even light stockings in warm, spring days. I thought it was especially fitting for an Easter Sunday dress code.




Do you reminisce over your mothers dresses and outfits back in the day?




I have to say I am drawn to a lot of similar styles my mom strutted around in! Even the same colors! Must be in the genes ;)



Saw this vintage hat at a boutique and had to snap a pic!!

    Oh wow! These pictures just made my day. Love that striped dress. Sort of reminds me of the Kate Spade one I just saw?

    love this! I would totally wear that green skirt+white blouse exactly as she wore it.
    I'm also an extreme sucker for anything pastel...

    I super love vintage outfits and accessories. I got a dress tailored after a vintage dress I saw online not too long ago. =)
