how time changes things....

When I was a few months old...

When I was a few years old...

And just two days ago at a friend's wedding...

Dress is from Valentino, beaded clutch is vintage Dior and you can't see it in the picture but I wore vintage Dior earrings and a necklace I bought at Covent Garden market...

I bought this dress during the big Valentino clearance sale where everything was 50 - 90% off. I don't usually wear floral prints but I just tried it on for fun while my friend Sarah who was with me kept trying on all the white shirts she could find. She's always buying white shirts and I'm always buying black dresses. When I came out of the dressing room to show her the dress on me, she paused for a few seconds..then said.. "I like it actually! I know it's not something you would normally wear but somehow it works! Get it!"

I wasn't too sure about getting it but there was nothing else I really liked and it was very affordable since it was about 70% cheaper than the original price.

I'm glad I got it. And at the sale, I managed to convince Sarah to buy a black dress. I wonder if she has worn it yet?

Oh... and remember the black ruffled Lanvin dress I wrote about in earlier post? Well, IT IS on sale now and they still have my size available...

hmmm..... now I can seriously think about getting it.... :)
