Friday Frock Love: Wishing for Spring

I’m cold, and I’m fed up of it.

I swear this winter has lasted forever, but there are tiny little hints of spring. The sun occasionally peeks through the clouds, there are fresh tulips and daffodils in my house and the nights are getting a little lighter. Now it’s March I feel it’s time to hurry spring along a little bit and bring out a 50s floral prom dress, even if for the time being we need to team them with a cardigan and thick wooly tights.

Today I’m focusing on some of the fabulous repro brands out there who have some amazing 50s floral frocks in spring florals in that will look lovely with a cardigan and stockings right now, and even lovlier when/if the sun decides to make an appearance!

    I have 4 lady v dresses sitting in my wardrobe and they are fantastic. I feel like a total princess wearing them and for the price they are beautifully made.

    I love Lady V clothes! So comfortable and really good quality… I think they are a really good price too…

    You tempted me to buy the Hepburn dress. It’s so pretty. I can’t wait for it to arrive.

    I want them all! Every flicker of sunshine has seen me trawling the internet for some new 1950s dresses! So sick of winter clothes now!

    I love winter and even I’m waiting for Spring it just seems to have gone on for too long this year! I do love a nice 50s print dress, shame they are nearly always floral when repro, ah well, will have to look for some fabric and make one, I’m just not a floral gal!

    I love the first dress, it’s so pretty and dark enough to wear all year round I think… Just in case the sun doesn’t show up for a while ha šŸ™‚
