Gentlemen Don't Read Each Other's Mail

Much Love and I recently exchanged packages. She received mine awhile ago, but my receipt of hers was postponed by my road trip. It was very nice to return home to a big pile of unopened mail. Much Love's package included so many wonderful pieces from a ocean themed scarf (that my mother has already threatened to steal!), to a "happy" polaroid, a drawing of me, and this wonderful lipstick dress. How cool is this print? Many thanks Much Love!

Emily said...

What a cute dress! Aren't Much Love's drawings just the sweetest? :)

Divinity Avenue said...

What a fun little exchange! I love the print on the dress. It's so almost abstract. I wouldn't have noticed it was lipstick if you hadn't said it.

Bad experiences with caves, eh? I Used to be fascinated and horrified at the same time by caves. I think it stemmed from watching these discovery channel shows about people who would go into them to explore them and get lost or stuck inside and never get out.

little me. said...

That dress is lovely.
I would love to exchange packages, sounds like fun :)

Lauren! said...

It is so adorable this lipstick dress.....also like your tights very much. I will certainly buy a pair in this colour!!!!xx

indigotangerine said...

what a fabulous dress. from far away it just looks like a cool graphic print, closer you can see the tubes of lipstick and even closer you can see the pop art like dots.

Anonymous said...

do you edit your photos or do they always come out this pretty?

sarah_ollivier said...

They are VERY cool. Love the firt one. And here are the blue tights I love again !

Rebecca, The Clothes Horse said...

@Anonymous 12:46 pm, I wouldn't say they always come out this pretty and I do edit my photos sometimes. However, the only thing I adjusted in this set is the contrast.

Valencia Lia said...

Wooooo,swaps can always be really fun and exciting !! I love the dress she sent you,its really pretty <3

Damsels said...

PinkBow said...

rosalita fashionista said...

I love that dress! and pairing it with colored tights is adorable. I can imagine it with a girly vintage cardi or a hot pink handmade bow-belt like you wore a few posts ago and making an equally fab statement.
