the calivintage dress

modcloth calivintage dress dear creatures

as promised, the modcloth calivintage dress is making it’s premier in today’s outfit post. i must say, i am over the moon about this dress, which happens to be from the dear creatures spring 2010 collection. the moment their lookbook came out, i had my eye on this lovely little sailor dress, so you can imagine my excitement when modcloth named it after yours truly! and you know what? it’s kinda like it was made for me. in fact, when i got it in the mail last week, i immediately put it on, and have already worn it 3 times since then. if i didn’t have so much fun taking photos today, i would have fit in the pictures of the other ways i’ve styled it so far, but then this post would have waaaay too many photos in it. you’ll just have to wait for the rest, i guess.

  1. That dress definitely WAS made for you! It looks so cute with the red hat and lips- can't wait to see the other ways you've styled it… Nautical themed clothing is one of the joys in my life at the moment (and most likely forever)- Perfect item to be named after you!

  2. It makes me nervous for you — jumping on the roof like that. That first picture is amazing, as is the dress. Love the back!

  3. you look so adorable in this dress! It looks so nice with the red hat. And wow you got me excited beeing so close to the edge.

  4. This has to be one of the greatest dresses I have ever seen! Definitely you. I would buy this dress this very minute if I could, which I can't, so there's my wishful thinking. haha

  5. oh my goodness that hat is ADORABLE on you. and i love that last picture; both you and your shadow look so happy :-)

  6. Oh my god, HOW amazing?! It looks perfect on you. I want something named after me!
    Btw, I just confirmed your Chictopia friend request from about a year ago! Sorry for the tardiness, I'm crap with that site! I must start using it more.

  7. i've been absent for a while and am back to lurking. BUT had to say… that first pic is MONEY! you just seem to be levitating (sp?) or at the very least calmly floating to the roof like a feather. so fun.

  8. Congrats on getting Blogger Of The Moment! Your namesake dress suits you to a T. Super in love with the way that you've styled it – navy and red is an obvious winning combination, & the socks and peeptoe wedges are adorable.

  9. That is the prettiest dress from the prettiest line of clothing in the world! And I'm a little scared of how perilously close you look to the edge of the roof!! But back to the pretty pretty–I'm so glad they named it after you, it has your style signature stamped all over the dress hizzy.

  10. That dress is amazing! I also love the red straw hat. I'm convinced that straw hats like that will make a comeback this summer. Once it gets a little warmer in New York, I plan looking like I'm about to hit the beach as much as possible!

  11. Oh, my. I adore this dress! Seriously considering buying it. Love the styling…the red lips and hat, perfect! That first photo is so adorable…how do you manage to jump so gracefully?! It looks like you're just peacefully floating.

  12. that dress is too stinkin' cute on you! i also love your jumping pictures, you make them look effortless.

  18. The shadow of your jump is amazing. What a cool picture. Beautiful! Congratulations on the Blogger of the Month award. Couldn't agree more.

  19. that last photo is amazing! i can't wait to see the other ways you style this cute dress! if i had it, i would probably wear it three times after i got it too! :) it's perfect! i've been looking for a sailor-esque dress for so long! i wish i could shell out $130 for this :( one day…
