1920's vintage replica dress, vintage/garage sale stole, forever 21 pumps
Like I said on twitter, a free waistline was a must in my choice of outfits every holiday celebration. This dress more than did the job in all its beaded glory...it probably weighs at least 20 lbs or so but I loooove it!
Today was my first American Christmas celebration...usually my mom would make every delicious Chinese dish there is but today I had dinner at Tim's parents place and had a wonderful time stuffing myself with everything cheese. I LOVE mac n' cheese; anything with melted cheese is delicious in my book.

Vintage clothes are often so heavy! I don't know how they bore the weight of some of the heavy vintage wool coats I've seen.
ReplyDeleteI never know what to serve on Christmas--we don't have a national traditional dish like turkey on Thanksgiving. Plus there is always so much else to do, no time to cook. Besides the true meaning of it, it's not my favorite holiday....
mmm mac & cheeeeeese =)
