Dress: Gift — Cardigan: Goodwill — Thigh-highs: Sock Dreams (Extraordinarily Longer Thigh High in Teal) — Ankle boots and necklace: Thrifted — Earrings: Hand-me-down
This dress and I have had a good run, but I think it’s time for us to part ways. The fit has never been perfect, it’s kinda see-through, I’m usually one tug away from boob exposure…
…and there’s something really weird going on with the zipper area near the butt. What the heck is that?
I think this was a good send-off for it, though. Two people told me I looked springy within 0.5 seconds of each other, which isn’t too bad for the actual first day of spring.
Soooo…anybody want a weird dress? If you do, I could also throw in a smart-aleck boyfriend and an obnoxious tripod cat, no charge.

Does the boyfriend do dishes? Also I’m not sure what a tripod cat is, but my imagination has run wild. You do look adorably springy! I love the argyle sweater. I need to pull out some of my argyle knee high socks while the weather is right for them.
I already have a smart-aleck male companion, and I’m allergic to cats, but I’d love to try a new weird dress. I’m thinking we’re a similar size/shape, but not so similar that it’s impossible for something to work on one of us and not the other. If it doesn’t work on me either, I could try to see what I can do in the sewing room to fix it.
It’s hard to get zippers right at the butt. I’ve had that problem when I’ve made dresses.
Great, I’d be happy to send it to you! Email me your address at figwiggin[at]gmail[dot]com and I’ll get it out in the next few days.
It just came in the mail today! I think it’s going to work. I need to shorten the straps and see if I can do something about some minor back wonkiness. What a pretty color. Thank you so much!
Also that is a cute springy outfit. I did not wear a cute springy outfit on the first day of spring because it was flippin’ 20 F/”feels like” 10. Wtf, Chicago spring? Could you spring already please?
