day 36 of 57: Red dress special

    Today is day 36 of 57, and I have only 21 more dresses to go! It's been a long summer of dress celebration, but I can't wait to put on some pants for a while - although I still browse the dress section of any clothing store.
    This red midi-length shirt dress is another vintage thrift gem from the Salvation Army up the street from me. $5 made it mine. The hidden placket sports a full button closure, which is great for adjusting the height of the slit. The 3/4 sleeves are somewhat over-sized, and the seamed waist is perfectly fitted and has belt loops, which I have a polka-dot sash looped through it. The dress is pretty simple, but totally feminine and elegant for day wear.
