In the pictures below I'm wearing my newest Retrospec'd dress. The print is called Country Life, and the style is called Connie. I already had one Connie, in the Gay Parisi print. Shirt dresses are my favorite dress style. I've gotten a lot lately, especially in the Bernie Dexter Kelly style. This print is gorgeous, just like so many of Retrospec'd prints. It looks like a painting. Even though I love going to cities, the print on the dress is pretty representative of the area I grew up in and still live in; very rural, with lots of farms. Speaking of that, it's funny to me how it seems most people think of New Jersey a very busy and crowded area, like the area right outside of NYC. We've had this happen a lot when we go on vacation, and we love to educate people about NJ, ha. Yes, NJ does have that area, but the area my husband and I are from couldn't be more different from that. The town I'm from is very small, and there are more cows than people there. There's a farm on the road I grew up on, and there's two stoplights in the town. It takes 40 minutes to get to a mall from there, 35 minutes to get to the movies, etc. The town I live in now is a little bigger than that, with more to do, but there are still lots of farms right around me. So, anyway, in case you didn't know, now you do!

This dress is so pretty! The print is positively pastoral, which is so soothing. I love shirt dresses, too, and can't stop buying Kellys!
ReplyDeleteI really love the print on this dress, and the shirt style dress by Retrospec'd! :)
ReplyDeleteI grew up in a similar setting - people here Massachusetts and think everything is BOSTON haha I grew up more central, in a cluster of small towns where we also had to drive 30min at least to get to where a mall was or a movie theater! So funny!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely print and I love it paired with the red accessories. <3
