Remember that really amazing thrifting trip I keep referencing from a few weeks back? This lace slip was a magical acquisition from that day. It's rather large on me, though, which is why I crossed the straps - front and back. Otherwise, the neck fell in a really strange way! The man that owns the store tried to tell me it was too big for me, which was slightly awkward (it is technically lingerie, after all), but I assured him that I knew and still wanted it. Haha
And I promise I'll stop talking about it, but this weather has made me so confused... it's been freezing the last few days! I actually wore a coat.
Anyway, party on, people. Follow me on twitter! (:

I love this idea! Why have I never thought of this? And why have I never criss-crossed too-long straps? I have learned so much from this post...

I love how you made it wearable for yourself - this just look so cool!

I think it looks great! lol I don't think it's too big at all :)
I love the straps on that dress!! They're so unique and cute :) How many thrifting trips do you go on to find such wonderful things?! I can't seem to find good things very often and I can hardly find the time to go thrifting these days :(
I really love the way you layered it all together! The little sweater with tied front is such a sweet touch! xoxoxoo
hahaa, there's this vintage shop i like to go to in oxford where the lady who owns it likes to tell me that everything i want to buy is too big for me aswell! x
Nice dress and I love the color of the overknee socks!

this is such an awesome idea! i would have never thought to layer it over another dress. i guess i'll have to be on the hunt for a lace slip now. hopefully i won't have to encounter an awkward salesman, haha :)
