quite simply........i want this dress


Do you know I actually keep a photo file labeled "DJ's fashion" as in the blog Dust Jacket Attic, we already know no one does styling better. She showed this floral-laden creation yesterday and I really can't get this pleated splendor out of my head. Nor picturing the shoes that would go with it. Have you ever seen anything so exquisite? This is my Princess Dress or my Mother Of The Groom dress for when that day comes along. Quite simply..............I want this dress. And the chocolate taffeta skirt with the gorgeous overlay seen in the same post, don't look too long at either of them, this fantasy is all mine. 


Happy weekend and a peachy welcome to new followers.

    It is gorgeous! I have never pulled off the "fluffy" kind of dress. I went to her page and I'm much more suited to the "little black dress" or that stunning chocolate skirt...but that doesn't mean that I can love the look of this one!

    Dear Sande,
    I know that I have never met you but, going by your photo and your style, this dress has your name written all over it. You must really seek it out and buy it....you can always save it until it is your moment to be Mother-of-the-groom.....it's the sort of dress that would never date.
    Our wonderful friend Deej (as I call her) is always posting clothes that I must have !! She is so good at it. XXXX

    I agree and I too have a 'DJ file' on my hard drive. Ms DJ is fantastic and I love her to bits.

    Loving the dress too...!

    Oh wow...wish I'd seen this photo before I became Mother of the Groom in October...to my only beloved son! maybe it'll have to be a Mother of the Bride creation...but was that in April as well!! Two children wed in one year is one too many! so don't think any more will follow suit anytime soon...besides...need time to save for THAT DRESS!! :)
    thanks for sharing...how fabulous!!
