Too bad you're so beautiful and so complicated

Today was all about the colour and this 1950ish dress. I felt pretty all day.

Necklace: from China - gift from my husband
Cardigan: Smart Set
Dress: Heartbreaker from Pretty Things Boutique
Belt: Smart Set
Shoes: Fluevog Pin Ups | Miss April (last worn here)

Apparently the last time I wore this dress was pre-blog. I thought I wore it more frequently than that!

The belt I'm wearing doesn't really match but it kind of goes with the greenish-yellow hue in the dress pattern.

This is the dress I was wearing when I got my cat/boot tattoo in Paris. I remember feeling very uncomfortable - not because the tattoo hurt (it did) - but because Parisian woman don't wear this much colour. They tend to wear a lot of grey, black and beige so I stood out like a crazy woman.

Pro tip: If you're going to get a tattoo, make sure you wear something that won't end up touching the area that was tattooed - like a sleeveless dress. It also helps if you wear something that makes you feel fabulous so you're able to endure the pain.

Pretty pin-ups! I didn't think I owned any orange shoes but apparently I now have 4 pairs. Whoops.
