Playing Dress Up

In my never-ending quest of becoming the well-rounded housewife, I have added a new category to the blog that I call 'House-Wifery'. I've recently become enamored with the day dresses from the 50s. (Okay, some might be from different eras... I'm no expert!) Now that I've mastered the chocolate chip cookies, I think it's time to work on my wardrobe. I find it funny how dressing up can change my mindset~ Maybe this housewife should show my legs a bit!  With fall in the air  I am loving plaids right now, though admittedly I'm tentative to wear such bold all-over patterns. But I do love these dresses and hope to put my fears aside. Here are a few of my favorite etsy picks:
Ande Monster Vintage


Jess James Jake


Crafty Crow Vintage

Qs Daydream 
To Hell in a Handbag 
Dear Golden Vintage
 Wouldn't I be just like Lucy, especially in that last one?!

  3. ooohhh... I love the 4th one down (but don't know how I'd look with a belt on this waist of mine). Super cute dresses! and I love the style of the 50's, I always say that I should have been a wife/mother during that time.
