I tend to get most of my stuff by scouring charity shops, vintage boutiques and jumble sales, or by trying eBay (US and UK versions) and Etsy. I tend to find my best bits in America and the prices are generally cheaper so it's ok to get them shipped over. Cute dress by the way! xxStitches & Threadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06915785638902434606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802517265731566553.post-84187077392585361112008-07-08T21:42:00.000+01:002008-07-08T21:42:00.000+01:00I love the purple tights with that dress!I love the purple tights with that dress!Andrea Eameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15304706719936895188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802517265731566553.post-4316360926443591542008-07-08T21:27:00.000+01:002008-07-08T21:27:00.000+01:00Haha, my long thin legs illusion is working! The t...Haha, my long thin legs illusion is working! The truth is, I have ok legs, but I know how to make them look better. Dark tights make them look thinner and help to disguise my knobbly and slightly inward facing knees. I also never pose with my legs straight together and feet pointed forwards, otherwise I look knock-kneed. I wear heels to look taller, and avoid shoes which come right up the front of the foot or have straps across the ankle because they shorten the leg (the type of flat gladiator sandal with straps around the ankle are terrible for this). And I choose outfits to disguise the less good area, the tops of my thighs. So all my skirts are mid-thigh or longer and have some volume, I don't wear shorts, and I either wear dark jeans or use a long top to cover the tops of my legs. It's all just a case of knowing your body, good and bad bits, and learning to flatter and disguise as well as possible. And, obviously, taking 37 photos of your outfit to get the best one :-)Adrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17747949395279985962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802517265731566553.post-76529009456823934062008-07-08T20:59:00.000+01:002008-07-08T20:59:00.000+01:00Love this outfit!
