Thursday Thrill - Cinnamon Spice

spice colored vintage dress from the 40s with detail on neckline and hip
I am introducing a new weekly blog post today. I'm calling it Thursday Thrill and will feature an item that I would LOVE to have and something from my shop with which to accessorize it. Truth be told, I'm doing this for my own thrill really. I'm not what people would refer to as "wealthy". Okay, I'm broke. But this is why I'm implementing Thursday Thrill! That way it feels like I somehow have shared something that I'm daydreaming and pining over and you all can share with (read: console & pity) me.

This first installment of Thursday Thrill features a dress from Dear Golden that inspired this whole idea of a blog post for stuff I adore and desperately desire. This gorgeous, vintage 1940's lace dress is calling my name people! Look at the detail on the hip!

I'm a swing, lindy, balboa, and blues dancing fanatic and this dress would be THE BEST balboa dance dress EVER. I already have vintage reproduction heels in cognac brown from remix and my feather fascinator would be sooo fun with this! If I didn't want quite as much drama (as if), I could always pair it with my brown sugar button bobby pins as well.

      I know right?! Maybe when we become gloriously successful in our shops we can indulge in some of these dreams. ;-)

      Yeah, the colors were definitely a part of the draw here. The color itself feels vintage to me.

      It does, doesn't it. I wonder if that is the official name of this color " Vintage " lol

    What a great idea! I love your new feature :-) The dress is gorgeous, but I really have a thing for shoes so those are calling my name, lol. I can see this whole ensemble looking so great together! Fun fun post !

      Thanks! The shoes rock too by the way. They were a big purchase for me but since I dance I needed quality shoes and the vintage style was a huge bonus. I got the cognac color because they were half the price (plus I love the color)!
