Navy Linen Shirtwaist

I found a cute linen shirtwaist dress.  You can't really see in the photographs but it has embroidered polka dots set into a triangle pattern, all over the front of the dress.  The Mister said it had a very June Cleaver feel to it.  I'm ok with that, I liked Barbara Billingsley and her style as the Beaver's mom.

    1. Joanna, can you believe I found these shoes on clearance at TJMaxx for $5!! They are one of my favorite pairs of shoes and the price makes them that much more. =)

  4. Such a timelessly elegant, beautiful look. Navy blue is so becoming on you, dear lady. Love the triple strands of pearls as well, they help heighten the sophistication of this classic shirtwaist dress all the more.
