I am not the person to give you feedback about this. AT ALL. I mean, I say yes! Absolutely incorporate touches of that era into your clothes! But my advice might be a bit ... biased.
Well, part of the reason I asked here is because I knew y'all would get it, unlike, say, the Coworker Who Thinks I'm Weird. Which I suppose I am, but I get the impression she doesn't think being a little strange is a virtue.
That's a gorgeous dress, and I love the prussian blue.
which I haven't heard since they changed the crayola color because "kids don't know what prussians are any more"
