vintage grey dress and collars and buttons... and jackets and gloves!

dress, jacket, tie, gloves :: vintage
EDIT: as is something of a tradition, I forgot an item! The cape is Asos, and, after months of looking at it online, I found it at an op shop :)

Our cold spell continues... I didn't think I'd be wearing this dress for a good few months, but I got to take it out for the first time last week. It was, in fact, cold enough to need layering... welcome to Melbourne's summertime!


So, I started out with my new vintage dress. I love this style, with the collar and the buttons... it's becoming a bit of a thing for me!


But I've been in a neck accessory (necksessory?) mood this week. So, I add a stripy tie from another vintage dress and jacket set.



And then that jacket goes on top.


Believe it or not, it was actually cold enough for gloves!


And there was rain, so I needed a cape. And needed to make a serious face, too.


But not for too long.


And that's it! It's warmed waaaay up again now, and I am back in sundresses and accossorising with sunburn and mozzie bites. But for once, I don't seem to mind too much. There are some good things about summer, too..! And those bits are for next time x
