I think of this as my stewardess dress. Even though I haven’t seen a stewardess in anything similar since I was five. And even then, I might’ve just superimposed photos of vintage airline attendants onto my actual memories.
I’ve wanted to try wearing a scarf like this for ages, but it never quite worked. Until now! I think it looks fabulously funky draped over one shoulder like that.
Also: NO TIGHTS! After all my hesitation, it felt glorious to show the world my blindingly white gams today. Freeeeeedoooooooom!
Additionally, it was windy during today’s photo session. Windily annoying, I should say.
The scarf and shoes go so beautifully with that dress. I love the button detail at the bottom!
Holy smokes, lady! I love that vintage red dress! I'm considering blinding everyone with my very pale bare legs tomorrow.
I love this dress! You look great! I could never pull off wearing a cute dress like that!
Incredible! Not only is that "red" YOUR color, but your shoes match your ink! Well played, my friend!
Oooh – I LOVE that dress! The color is fabulous on you!
It's knit?
You are funny! I let my legs that are so white they are yellow out the other day! Freedom!!!
And I love that dress!!!
Oh that dress is GORGEOUS! Your signature color (can I say that?) and with adorable vintage details like the buttons at the hem! love it 🙂
also, that last picture made me giggle!
Nice shoes, and the dress is gorgeous. I love the last picture, you are so funny.
Gorgeous dress! I love how you styled that scarf. And your expression in that last photo is too hilarious! 🙂
wow that dress is a Fantastic find!

That's a Jackie O dress:). So ladylike.
love this look! and aren't those shoes the best? i have them in the pewter and they're comfortable and earthy all at once.
I agree, but neglected to say, that last photo is worth its weight in gold. Wait. Photos do not have a weight. OK, it's priceless:).
Good god those platforms are delightful.
The scarf idea is genius! I'll have to give it a try sometime.
I love that dress with those green heels – yowza!
And how brave are you, showing your legs! Brrr! It's too cold right now for me – I'm still rubbing on the self tanner so I don't blind everyone!
That dress is a great find! Love the button detail.
Love this whole outfit!! I especially like the scarf draped that way, very chic! And, I've said it before but dang girl, you've got a great shoe collection~
nice red dress,,its really look awesome with yah..:)
What a great find, that dress is so perfectly stewardess fabulous! Those side buttons, wow, love.
I love how you're mixing red and green without being christmasy. The button detailing is so cute, it makes a basic red dress something special
Eeek: This reminds me of the vintage dress I got at Shrimpton at Xmas! Love it, natch.
adore the button on the side!
too cute… whooshing wind~~
xo
What a great dress. But it seems in the last picture that the scarf has a mind of its own.;-)
I love those shoes!! So much!! I also love exclamation points!!! That is all!
I love the way you affixed the scarf — so elegant! And that red dress is fab; I like the little pockety flaps and the buttons.
Your mom was right. You do look smashing in red! And I love the drama of the shoulder scarf. There's something 1970s Latin American about it, but I can't quite describe it.
I love the dress the neckline is very cute and the button detail is fab!
Oh, Sal, I LOVE this. Green shoes are just DEElish with that dress.
I love your shoes! And you have some killer tatoos on your legs…would love to hear the stories behind them!
I love this outfit! The shoes are just fantastic, and the detailing in that dress – the buttons down the side! – is just wonderful. You look amazing, Sal!
I really like the way you've attached that scarf with the dress. Very stylish.
The outfit is gorgeous. You also have beautiful legs, Sally. 🙂
This inspires me to put my tights back in the closet.
I think we have the same vintage stewardess image.
It had been some time since I had seen a scarf worn like that, it reminds me my boss at my old job 🙂
What a lovely dress….shoes are perfect!
Oh Sal I LOVE this. That dress has such great, interesting details. Those shoes are bad.ass. And that scarf is such a classy touch
What a wonderful dress, you look very elegant!!!
xoxo
That dress is just stunning on you, and I love the shoes, too!
Lovely outfit!
I can't believe it can be warm enough over there to go without tights already – didn't you have snow on the ground until a couple of weeks ago?
OMG! I seriously thought you were wearing white tights! Lol! I feel better about showing my pale legs now! Just ribbing you…think you and your blog are great!
Anonymous(2): I said the SAME THING when I saw these photos! Hah! I don't think I've ever been so pasty.
The red looks beautiful with the green — shoes and tattoo 🙂
