Sundae Dress

When Jaclyn of the Audrey Grace Boutique contacted me, I was a bit starstruck. I’ve become a huge fan of her shop via some of the internet ladies I admire the most, like Hannah Kristina Metz and Caitlin Shearer, so when she e-mailed me about taking some photographs for the launch of her online shop, I couldn’t refuse.

She loaned me this gorgeous dress with pearl buttons by Melbourne designer Katie Louise Ford, which fits like a glove. I feel so beautiful in it! Some little girl stopped me while I was buying flowers to tell me I was pretty – you can’t ask for a sweeter compliment than that. I love the modest boat neck and ballet back, and it has the most subtle and beautiful swiss dot texture.


Eating the most decadent sundae from Beth Marie’s in Denton – it’s butter toffee ice cream, caramel, whipped cream, and peanuts piled on top of a layer of yellow cake while trying desperately not to drip any on my dress


Find the dress here. Worn with Steve Madden pumps

Be sure to check out the Audrey Grace shop, which launched this past Monday. It’s stocked with beautiful vintage dresses, as well as some pieces by my favorite contemporary designers like TBA and Sretsis.

Thanks so much to my twin sister Lulu for taking the pictures, and for Beth Marie’s Denton for letting us take photos during business hours!

    These pictures are stunning! I love the contrast of your red lips against the softness of the dress and your hair.
    P.S. I loved your red hair but I always love red hair over every other color and I think the blonde makes you look ethereal and lovely. It’s also crazy that people would call you boring now when your style is consistently interesting! I think people don’t always realize how rude and bossy they come across online and that their opinion is not a universal imperative! I swear all anonymous commenters think that their comments are 100% truth, rather than personal opinions that not everyone agrees with.

    That is the sweetest compliment, even more so because children are so sincere!

    She was right though :)

    Hi dear, I just saw your comment on my blog and decided to have a look who was the girl behind Seecreatures.com. To tell the truth I was really amazed by the design of your blog, it’s perfectly well done and fresh.

    Great quality of the pictures btw, I’ll go straight away to have a look at the shop!

    I’ve found that the best compliments always come from little girls and older ladies!

    You look like such a dream in this post. I love your hair, and you’re certainly braver than I am–eating ice cream in that dress!
