Ok, so, some of you may know I graduated with a degree in Music Education. I love music, adore it, and hope one day to teach it. So...when I saw this dress, as cheesy as it may sound, I knew I had to have it. Presenting the best music teacher dress ever.
I wore it last night to a Nashville blogger get together. Which was wonderful, I met lots of amazing gals and I can't wait to get together with them again soon.

I know I have become addicted to Trashy Diva, this is my third dress of theirs, and I have two more on my Christmas wish list. I've always wanted a dress cut like this, a wonderful 40's shape, and had never found a great repro one until I stumbled upon theirs.
Any way, not only am I excited about this dress, but Thanksgiving and Christmas are so close! Eee, I love the holidays. I'm having the most fun planning gifts and whatnot. What are your favorite things about the holidays?
xo,

P.S. thank you for all the lovely comments on my hair tutorial! I have some more in the works involving wet sets.
SO beautiful!! xo
ReplyDeleteElvis would be proud!
ReplyDeleteI love it! Wow that dark hair really suits you. You're looking so confident and happy these days (not that you didn't before, but it seems more so now), it's so awesome to see how people grow and evolve in blog land)x
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful shirt and you are so so so gorgeous <3
ReplyDeleteGosh you are too cute! And I am also hoping to be teaching soon. Once, I wore a sea shell print dress for one of my lesson plans about the ocean and it was so much fun. I got plenty of compliments.
ReplyDeleteI agree with all of the above!
ReplyDelete(And I'm very jealous that you have even one dress from Trashy Diva - your blog continues to make me jealous!)
Gorgeous, m'love x
I absolutely love your outfit, hair, make up, everything from this post. You look lovely with dark hair by the way. I hope we can follow each other.

You look AMAZING!!!! I saw this dress on Modcloth and thought it was so lovely, so I'm glad you own it because it looks wonderful on you! Trashy Diva do make some beautiful things, they recently released this gorgeous black and red plaid dress and I am so in love with it, hopefully I might get it for Christmas :D
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of the holidays though, I think my favourite part is all of the decorations!
That's not "cheesy" at all, in fact I think it's the epitome of sweetness. I'm constantly drawn to garments that relate to mine or my husband's life in some regard, too - especially when they're vintage or repro. You've truly struck an awesome style note (pardon the music pun) with this thoroughly beautiful dress, dear gal!

What a fantastic dress! :)
ReplyDeleteoh the kids would love you in that dress!
ReplyDeleteI love that dress! How perfect for a music teacher, too! :) Your hair also looks lovely!

Wow I love this dress ! You look gorgeous, as usual !
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh that is one of my wish list dresses too! You look great in it, so cute and different.
ReplyDeleteI love the musical notes so much! beautiful!

Yes yes yes! I saw the music notes when you initially posted a snap of this dress and I was hoping to see what the whole thing looked like... I think they're great! If I ended up being a school teacher, I feel like I would develop a Ms. Frizzle-esque collection of topically appropriate novelty prints to wear when I taught.
ReplyDeleteThis dress is like a dream! I adore you shoes as well, they are beautiful. And how gorgeous does that bright blue look with your dark locks? I love it!
ReplyDeleteA perfect dress for you! Love!! just watched your video and loved it too. You are just so beautiful. Love your hair that length it really suits you.
ReplyDeleteXo,cb
You have blue suede shoes!! I didn't see your shoes the other night. Wow, I love them. It was so nice to finally meet you the other night. I'm looking forward to our next get together!
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question, my favorite thing about the holidays is having more excuses to craft. Sad, perhaps, but true!
love the music notes on the top. i would prefer to have thos cute blouse just as a top not as a dress. iit would look so great paired with other skirts and pants. ...
ReplyDeleteThis dress is so perfect for you!

I think it looks stunning on you!
ReplyDeleteI am very excited about Christmas and New Year. I'm especially looking forward to spending time with my beloved ones: my relatives, my significant other, as we don't get to do a lot together because of our studies and busy shedules. Besides, I want to sew myself a dress and read a book that I don't have time for right now. Yeah, I'm really waiting for holidays!
You and the dress are so adorable! I am so excited for Christmas I just love it! xxx
ReplyDeletethat dress is SO GOOD. the shape looks great on you! and it was so nice to meet you! i hope we have lots more meetups!
ReplyDeleteOhhh that dress is PERFECT!!! I adore it!!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous as always, and I'm also crazy about those oxfords!
The dress is amazing, and looks fab on you! I hope to attend one of the blogger meetups in the future, sounds like fun :)

ReplyDeleteSince seeing all of your pretty dresses I have gotten a little obsession with Trashy Diva too! I have bought 5 dresses from their sale page that had an additional 20% off! Thanks for showcasing your lovely dresses!!! (My wardrobe appreciates it- ha!)
