Vintage Syle Dresses & Yummy Sandwiches

{LACE DRESS: H&M, FLORAL DRESS: MODCLOTH,, BELT: MODCLOTH, TIGHTS + SHOES: JOE FRESH}

Firstly, I am guest blogging over here today at "My Best Friend Jules," because word has gotten out that I like to babble fashion ...um, guilty, so be sure to check out my interview and post. And a BIG thank you to the lovely Mervi & Helena for being such rockin' ladies, and for inviting me to hang out on their blog to chat with their awesome readers.

Secondly, you guys gave me such great feedback on my last round of “at home” pictures, that I decided to do it again! And you know what? I really like it; no distracting backgrounds to deal with and I have complete privacy. Other highlights of shooting from home include? Sitting in a chair, making an awesome sandwich, petting the pooch, and doing my laundry ...sweet sweetness, people! As for today’s outfit? One word: “Hey, how come I’ve never thought of this combo before?” ...OK, that's actually ten. I told you guys, I like to babble! xx veronika

PS  - I am ALSO blogging over here today, "Meet Virginia Design" be sure to stop by and say HI! Happy fabulous Friday you guys!

This is a seriously cute outfit - I love the top underneath the dress, it looks so delicate. I kin if love taking my shots at home too, the background isn't always the best but I love the privacy!

Cydney said...

Ooh, nice layer! I think I might have to try this. You look beautiful as always!

Layering dresses?! wow I have never thought of that before!! I must invest in a couple of dresses first though! x

Cute! MY 2 Favourite trends for this spring! i also love the red lipstick! looks lovely on you! and yes the inside photos are cool! :) no one is wondering why you are posing naturally to the camera:P xx

Daniela said...

I love that dress but it's incredibly short. That my problem with all these cute dresses - I couldn't wear them to work because they'd be way too short :(

Steffy's Pro's and Con's said...

i love the floral dress with the lace shirt underneath... so cute! and the green tights with green shoes is such a cute combo! adorable as usual :)

1. Layering 2 dresses? Genius. =)
2. Your photos are so crisp; they look like they should belong in a magazine!
3. I really love the olive green tights and shoes-perfect addition to the outfit.
4. I'm so jealous that you can rock the bold blunt bangs look!

Simply Bubblelicious said...

Such a sweet outfit. So girly, LOVE it. I am slowly adding lace back into my life. Grew up in the 80's and had serious lace overload.

Laura said...

I love how you layered lace under the dress! Makes for an even sweeter outfit. I really like your blog because of the "remix options" you suggest. It is quite a wonderful idea.

I absolutely love this! The lace with the dainty print is sooo perfect!
Usually I don't like indoor pictures, but yours are totally done right! Maybe I will have to figure out a thing or two about taking my pictures indoors so I don't have to freeze my behind off!!

Yay! I love the olive tights! How fun! I have some teal ones and some sagey green ones, but no olive. Olive would be smashing! I also love your dress and, well, I've already told you how I feel about the belt. Lovely, as always :)

Meanz said...

Veronika you look so adorable! I love the lace layered with the florals, so feminine and flirty. I love at home pictures. Obviously, that's all I take, I do want to go out to look for more private places though, but I haven't had much time or luck lately!

this is such a lovely combination. you know layering so well!

Lisa, Suburban Heart said...

I love your combination of lace and floral! I also have a soft spot in my heart for olive green, so I am in love with your tights.

You have amazing lighting inside your house. I would take pictures inside more often if I wasn't deprived of sunlight indoors. Anyplace where you're able to do anything while making a sandwich (and eating it!) is ideal to me!

KateLainey said...

Ah yes green tights rock! I'm busting mine out again for a St. Patty's Day Party. Lovely blog!

First off, I love your new header. Well, maybe it's not new, but it is to me! Super cute.

Secondly, this outfit is gorgeous -- especially the puffy lace shoulders. Those are my favorite types of tops!

And, third -- you have an amazing following here. I remember reading your blog when it was just a baby and you had maybe 30 readers. Congratulations is in order, girlfriend!

blorange dice said...

so cute!! love the floral - and your clean, green flats (haha that rhymes).

Cee said...

Lace and florals are my two favourites, and you've combined them beautifully here! I also love the adorable green flats you snuck in... I've been on the hunt for a pair of green flats for years, although I haven't found my perfect pair yet. You must have lovely natural light in your home to get such good (and bright) indoor shots! (No matter how many windows I hope and lights I turn on, my indoor shots are always dark.)
xox,
Cee

Lea said...

thank you for your sweet, sweet comment :) It made me smile. And of course, you look darling. I have a black lacy shirt I can use for layering like that, but this makes me want a cream/off white one too. So, the list of wants grows.
