Animal Accents











You know that one dress, the one that just makes you feel great every time you wear it? Well this black rayon dress is that dress for me. It sure makes a lot of appearances here on the blog, but I can't help but wear it often and I love styling it in different ways!

This time I chose red as my accent color as I have been wanting to wear these amazing dress clips I got last year. I have seen these same clips with green rhinestones too and was very tempted to snap them up too, but sometimes even I need to stop somewhere! This jaguar print faux fur hat on the other hand, well that just had to become a part of my collection! I'm not really a fan of animal print things usually, at least not for clothing. I do prefer it in small doses like in accessories, and I really adore this hat! I tried to tie in the neutral colors of the faux fur in by wearing my tan gloves as well, I think it helps balance the look.

I really need to make another dress like this one since I love this particular combination of sleeve length/fullness, neckline, and overall silhouette so much. If I could find lovely rayon fabrics like this more often I should like a similar dress in every color. Anyone know of a good source for solid colored "cold" rayons like this one?

Dress: Made by me
Belt, Gloves, Jewelry, Hat, & Handbag: Vintage
Shoes: Bait (Royal Vintage Shoes)
Tights: Amazon

  2. Yup, if a dress works, get lots of versions. I've got a couple of dresses in more than one colour (I suppose as I like the 60s, it could be argued that a lot of my dresses are more or less the same dress anyway; the general shapes are very simple).

    I like the red clips. Think of all the fun you'd have if you had the green ones too.

    1. Thanks Mim! I only wish I could find more fabric like this flowing rayon so I could make this dress in more colors, rayon is pretty hard to find these days!

    1. Thanks Kate-Em! This was probably the most I have ever paid for fabric so hopefully I can find it for a better deal too!
