One of the most beautiful time periods of fashion, in my opinion, started with King Henry VIII. British textiles of the royal family, and I'm talking Anne Boleyn type of garb, was lush, intricate to make and obviously, very beautiful.
I've seen some cool textiles in un-conventional places, too, that draw my interest: tablecloths. You read that right... tablecloths. I love me a brocade/jacquard anything, and when I stumbled upon this dress on Warehouse, the first thing I thought was, "It looks just like a tablecloth from the 60s. I need this dress!" And yes, I know that sounds terribly weird... but it's how my mind works sometimes.
While I don't thrift often, I feel this outfit has vintage baby doll appeal. The peep toe Mary Jane shoes, a touch of pink, and of course, girly accessories all capture what I feel is an updated take on an adult feeling like a paper doll.
