I'm not generally too keen on 'outfit shots'. I think other people do it ridiculously well, and although I love nice clothes, clothes are still just clothes to me and I don't make any claims on being very fashionable. My fashion motto is - if it's red, I'll wear it. Being a not-entirely-body-comfortable twenty year old female, putting photos of my body on display makes me a little uneasy, but, regardless of my lack of fashion-photogenia, I wanted to show two vintage dresses I bought this week. I keep alternating between them and haven't worn anything else all week. Also, I can't stop cutting my hair. I've cut about 3/4 of its length off this week just on a whim. I need to go to the hairdressers to get it styled, but it's been fun leaving a big pile of cut hair all over the bathroom floor;

^ I'm very photogenic :D The dresses are from a newly-opened vintage shop around the corner from my house called 'Lil & I'. The lady who owns it is one of the sweetest shop-keeps ever.Tonight I am going to an 'Ugly Sweater Party'. Check my sweater - I actually think it's adorable and I've had it since I was a kid, haha. It is worn through in parts, covered in pills and stained but I can't help but love it;

^ Yes, the teddy's jumper unzips too :D

omg! omgomg! omg!
i freaked out over that "ugly sweater." it's actually super duper cute, hahaha. (oh boy, i sound like a girly girl... i swear, that's not how i mean it, lol). anyway, i love that the sweater has a sweater on it. :)
you're one of 2 people i know that likes to always wear their favorite color in almost everything they wear, and i love that. you and her are so lucky that your favorite colors work so well on you both as well (her fav color is purple). i'd like to wear bright orange all the time, but i'm pretty sure it wouldn't work out for me. i'd just look like a traffic cone! :P

Love love love those dresses! Where'd you get them from?
OMG you're GORGEOUS! I hope you secretly know that! Those photos reminded of Twinset's latest look book!! Those frocks are DIVINE!!!! I have not seen anything of their calibre at op shops in over a DECADE!!! Hurrah I say!!! xxx
CUTE! And you are very pretty with perfect skin and beautiful red hair! The world sucks for making us all hate our own look.
Oh, you should do outfit shots more oft. You've got fabulous style & truly are photogenic! LOVE those 2 dresses - it's as if they were made for you!
How adorable is it that the sweater's teddy bear's sweater unzips... oh, very adorable!
p.s. totally giggled with the 'thifted' URL... :)
Well I think 1) You shouldn't feel uneasy cos you look FABULOUS 2) Your hair looks awesome that length and 3) Those dresses (and the jumper) are wicked!!! Ugly sweater party. What a cool idea :) Xxx
Red definitely suits you! I'd love to live nearby a cool little shop like that. Hope you have fun at your party :)
You are gorgeous and so are those dresses! Great hair too :)
I'm not even a clothes person, by any stretch of the imagination, but those dresses are fabulous and you look smashing in them.

hello friend,
i adore those dresses, they are so charming and i think you should defiantly do more outfit posts!
i am the same with my hair, about a month ago, i got it cut to my collarbone (it was more than half way down my back) and when i got home from the hair dresser i decided i wanted it even shorter so my mum cut it to be above my shoulder, then about a week ago, after it grew an absurd amount and i told her cut it again! i think it is the summer air that is causing us to want to shear off our locks!

hope you have a fantastic day,
xoxoxoxoxxo

Bianca, Years ago my husband and I had a "red dress party". All attendees had to wear a red dress - men and woman alike. We had a great time and I have some great pictures.
