Feeling Ruffled by 1st Dibs

January 9, 2012 by WendyB

Every so often, I browse the beautiful vintage clothes on 1st Dibs. I’m a little relieved that these two pieces are sold, because if they weren’t, I’d HAVE to have them.

Roberto Capucci ruffled gown. Click for more information.

Givenchy blouse. Click for more info.

I guess I’ll settle for these for now.

    O that Givenchy blouse is giving me chills it is so wonderful! I have been hoarding frilly blouses for a while, but this one is perfect.

    The first dress makes me think of the cabbage patch dolls coming out of the cabbage!

    Ohwow that first dress is GORGEOUS. However the second – made me cringe a bit because I swear there is a top that looks nearly identical to that (I think the only big difference is it is asymmetrical) sitting in my goodwill. It’s that exact shade of yellow, over the top ruffle details, everything. And yes, I totally tried it on one day for the lulz, but it is so ridiculous on.

    Gorgeous vintage pieces but I could only wear them inside the boudoir (my life is dull! dull!). But the chips — they go with everything.

    Ha! That top one is awesome. But seriously, couldn’t you get some “All Dressed” 🙂

    Here’s something to keep you going, it’s got ruffles AND mullet dresses and I immediately thought of you when I saw it the other night…

    Yes, that first gown is perfect for you. As for chips, no more for me, I’m embracing low carb in 2012.

    Wow, that dress. The blouse is lovely, but the color . . . .
