And you may ask yourself, why is your dress so large?

Thank you all for your kind words about my sweet Jetta girl. We're missing her terribly. =(


I found this Marimekko dress at my favourite used clothing store, Elsie's, last Friday. Unfortunately, I was in a hurry so I didn't take the time to try it on. If I had, I would have realized that it's quite big.

Dress: Marimekko
Necklace: Meow
Belt: H&M
Shoes: Marc from Kick Ass Shoes

(Isn't Kick Ass Shoes the best name for a store?)

This dress has been re-hemmed so I'm guessing it used to be a lot longer. I think this length is fine but the width is a bit too big on me. You can really tell by looking at the extra fabric under the arm.

 I could probably have it altered but I'm not sure I like it enough to bother.

I do love the really big pockets on the front though. Maybe I can try to do a slap-dash alteration.

I added this Edgar Allan Poe brooch because Edgar's greenish hue matches the dress quite well.
