Betty Boop!

I was going to give this dress away because it had short sleeves which were too tight... But- I loved the cut of the dress and couldn't bear it so I cut the sleeves off so now its a sleeveless dress! The other thing I did was unfold the collar to make it lay flat so it gave this beautiful vintage looking pointed bodice. My hair was going wild with the results of half done pin curls so I just pinned it up some and went out the door. At work I had 2 people comment that I was looking sort of Betty Boop! Love that! What do you think?





































































































The Details:
Dress- Primark-London
Platforms- Steve Madden
Belt- vintage (came with a jacket from a consignment store)
Gold watch- estate sale piece from my Aunt Sandy

    Absolutely spot on! I would have completely thought that too, had you not pointed it out. You look so cute and beguiling at the same time here - just like Betty always did.
