five dollar dress


I got this dress (and one in pink) at my local opshop,
brand new with tags for $5 each. They are Leona Edmiston
and at the time I thrifted them, they were being sold in Myer.
Who knows? The brooch was from Diva, recently. It has
a lovely vintage look, I think.

    I must commend Diva in being able to create some vintage looking brooches, that brooch is a lovely addition to the outfit. I can't believe the dress only cost $5, what a steal!
