Feminine Fashion Week {Day 7} - 1960s Inspired

-What I'm Wearing-

Brown Polka-dot Sun Dress - Made by me for my HS Graduation {seen here}

Brown Sweater - Kohl's {Hand-me-down from Gabrielle}

Pink Tights - J.C. Penny {$4.99}

Brown T-Strap Kitten Heels - Naturalizers {Don't remember it was several years ago.}

Pearl Earrings - Gift

I love this dress! The sad thing is, I had a hard time putting on my dress this morning. I'm so worried about tonight. What if I can't get it off?!? I think this means I've grown out of my dress. :( Hopefully this isn't so. As it is my favorite dress ever!! {I think.} As this dress is sleeveless I add the sweater for a more winter look. I think it brings the outfit a more 60s flair. And my hair was fixed into a relaxed {more modern} flip, aka. Mary Tyler Moore. 

Now my dear readers, I'm excited to announce that my 1960s hair tutorial is now up on Vimeo {YouTube has a 10 minute limit and the tutorial is 15 minutes long}.

Polka Dotted Headband

I love headbands, but I also don't want to spend a lot of money on them either. So I have come up with a solution...make my own! This headband was made from fabric scraps (which I have way too many of!), a button from an old wool coat, and a piece of elastic. The flower was made from a tutorial I found on Marie-Madeline Studio.  This was so easy to make, that I don't think I will ever buy another headband. =)
