that collar and the buttons are amazingly cute on this dress. Love!

You totally look like a cute little 50s girl with that dress, your cute hair, and a pop of lovely red lipstick. I don’t know if that is even what you were going for, but you kinda nailed it!

The petticoat is a great idea! Especially for us tall gals….you look lovely.

I’m such a sucker for striped dresses, I love the lapel-look with the buttons and the addition of the petticoat. I wish I had a petticoat to fill out some of my skirts!

I totally need a versatile petticoat like this one! I love the way it looks with your dress.

Honestly Jen you are such a beautiful woman, inside and out! I’ve been reading your blog everyday for a year now and i want to thank you for sharing your life with us.

so cute! The petticoat is genius – I definitely need one of those, I always feel like most of my dresses are way to short for the summer w/o tights – but that petticoat would make them a lot more wearable

Jen – Loving this look, especially how you lengthened the dress by adding the skirt underneath. Adorable! – Katy

Ooh this dress is lovely! I love the collar detail on it.

Wow I’ve never thought of using a petticoat. Great idea. It’s so flattering to have a fuller skirt and I love the cute detail of the white peeking out underneath.

That hair style looks great on you. 1940s inspired? Love it.

Haha, yes …jean shorts & t-shirts sounds all too familiar. But so great to be able to dress up and I love the subtle retro/glam vibe you’ve given this look with your hair + red lips -SO pretty! Hope your week is a fab one. xx veronika

I love what adding the petticoat does to the skirt. I need to find a good petticoat!

Definitely a twirl-worthy outfit!

you look absolutely stunning!

Lovely dress! You look gorgeous!

I’ve been craving a pair those shoes so much that I actually had a dream the other night that I was wearing a pair and thinking “Jen WAS right, these shoes are really comfortable!”.
Gorgeous dress by the way!

Love this dress, and the idea of a petticoat! I haven’t worn one since I was a little kid, but I may just have to look into buying one now!

This outfit looks so…. Parisian! So cute.

i love this! it’s perfect on you. and what a grand idea to wear a skirt underneath dresses!
