It's an attack of the pretty birds!!!! I have to confess that I really don't like birds: Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds terrified me, they fly way to close to people's heads and let's not talk about the popping on you while flying. Despite my displeasure for the real things, I couldn't pass up this dress. It's equal parts ladylike in shape and whimsical in design; a sophisticated article of clothing that doesn't take itself to seriously. Perfection!
I picked up this ribbon over the weekend and had intentions of creating a cute ankle tie for some shoes, but that didn't quite work out because the picture in my head didn't match what the shoe actually looked like. How could I not know what my shoes look like? I've had them for over a year! It was a good thing I really looked at the print on this dress and saw dots on the little birds. That previous unnecessary ribbon purchased turned out to be the perfect outfit topper.
Outfit Details:
Bird dress- Erin Fetherston (bird print dress in size 8 here) Black cardigan- Kenzie
Black pumps- Hot in Hollywood (available here) Polka dot ribbon belt- Michaels (similar available here) Medallion necklace- Forever 21 (similar here and here)
That dress is amazing and I love that you paired it with the polka dot belt ... perfection!

ReplyDeleteCute dress girl!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable dress! I actually LOVE birds, but I know that having a phobia of them is pretty common. Sometimes I wonder if Hitchcock's movie is the cause, just like how Stephen King's It is the cause of so many clown phobias (including mine, hahaha)... hmmm... The ribbon is a perfect touch, too -- how funny that it was originally meant for something else! ;)
ReplyDeletethat bird print is so neat! and the pattern mix with the belt is genius!

Thanks guys!!! Glad you like my little birdies. :)
ReplyDeleteAmy, I think the clown fear comes from Poltergeist too. I had a nightmare of a clown coming to life and chasing me after watching that movie. And let's not talk about how it terrified/tramautized my brother, lol.
I love a bird print. Have you seen the skit Put a Bird on it? It is hilarious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XM3vWJmpfo

i'm not a big fan of birds myself but for a dress like that, i could learn to love them, lol
ReplyDeleteThat dress is so cool! I like that the birds are sort of color washed to look like pop art.
