S IS FOR SPRING & SLIP DRESSES!


Sorry guys for the long hiatus. i needed to take some time off from blogging and basically most social media. Zoe and I have been going through some tribulations both personal and financially, but i feel blessed to give my burdens and worries to God. i wouldn't know how to deal with everything coming at us at once if it wasn't for Jesus.

I'm grateful for all of you still reading my blog. and i hope your all good! we are going through some transitions with Bella Vintage and will be sharing as the changes come.

The heat has finally broken through the California sky and i am smitten in breaking out all the comfortable dresses. 


There was still a chill in the air at the time i took these pictures; that's why i'm wearing the over-sized cardigan and am not over killing my self with heat, haha! 

I have quickly fallen in love with this slip dress. i have always loved how vintage slip dresses can be easily worn as outer wear. all the detailing and craftsman-ship just can not be replicated in the mass retail market. my favorite slip dress era is the 1920's-1960's. with all the pretty pleating, contrast stitching, and laces. 



This one has a pretty zig-zag stitch detailing on the front bodice. definitely comfortable wear for this spring / summer season. and so versatile too!


SLIP-DRESS: 1970's vintage,  thrifted
