Seriously crushing on this dress right now. I got it a few months back and it's been in heavy rotation ever since. Today the little lace cuff on the right sleeve started to come away - I need to give this baby some TLC. I found it at Mission Thrift, a place I never seem to find anything. It was one of those "seriously, why the hell is this still here" joyful moments. I love those moments.

  16. what a score! I have the same issue - no luck at mission thrift! But if I found this dress I would have had the same response as you --- and probably would have busted out in some dorky dance of some sort :)

  22. I also worry then I wear a favourite often (let's say, five times in 2 weeks) that it will die sooner. I hope not! Here's to proper repairing with TLC indeed! :D

  23. I am so in love with this dress, Isla! Hope the TLC works out - it sure is a beauty!
