I often wear this shirt with brown or grey, too, and it pairs really nicely with both as well, so I'll definitely be looking for more garments and accessories in dusty butter/mustard yellow in the future.<br /><br />Many thanks, too, for all of your fantastic blog comments today. I really hope that you're having a fantastic August.<br /><br />Big hugs,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-5096466629975076662016-08-15T12:15:22.693-07:002016-08-15T12:15:22.693-07:00What a great outfit.

Were it not for the fact that said wall is a touch over an hour away from us, I just know it would appear here on a much more frequent basis. In a way though, I love having this attractive go-to spot as a dependable background that we can turn, if needed, while in Kelowna - and the fact that by not "overusing" it, it retains more of its "wow factor" (IMO).<br /><br />Many hugs & joyful wishes for the new week,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-77995860113942131872016-08-15T10:55:37.739-07:002016-08-15T10:55:37.739-07:00What a lovely comment, sweet Porcelina.

I'm quite in love with this palette and wish that I had more dusty mustard yellow in my closet so that I could put together other outfits (aside from those with this pretty blouse, that is) with it. Certainly a hue to keep my eyes peeled for (all the more) going forward from here.<br /><br />Wishing you a splendid week! <br /><br />xoxo ♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-17873444466851573502016-08-15T10:53:57.365-07:002016-08-15T10:53:57.365-07:00Thank you sweetly, my dear friend.

I honestly think that - especially if one keeps the rest of their outfit very sophisticated - that this classic style of suspender/jumper dress can be worn at any age. They're fun, versatile, and so classic - I say, if you like them, go for it! :)<br /><br />It's a firm favourite of mine, too - and to date, my only telephone cord bag. I'd love to add more to my wardrobe as time goes on. Who knows, perhaps our upcoming travels will lead a new one to cross my path (that would be awesome!).<br /><br />I hope that you had a great weekend and that all is well on your end as we embrace the second half of August.<br /><br />Oodles of hugs,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-13961088101183923062016-08-14T15:07:31.390-07:002016-08-14T15:07:31.390-07:00Such a charming set of photos!

I feel very fortunate to be able to work with the awesome array of sponsors - big, small and everywhere in between - that I do and to highlight some of their marvelous offerings here. I'm very selective in who I'll team up with, as it's crucial to me that the brands (and indie businesses) that I partner with are vintage/retro/rockabilly/pinup/history (or very similar) related, so as to help ensure they'll be a natural fit for CV and its audience of old school adoring fans. Naturally, your own business and products 100% personify that and make working together all the more of a pleasure. <br /><br />Big hugs & happy first week of August wishes,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-47110597399547153402016-08-01T17:58:04.911-07:002016-08-01T17:58:04.911-07:00I agree with you 100% on this outfit - it is a cla...I agree with you 100% on this outfit - it is a classic.

I agree...Thank you so very much, my darling friend. I agree. This style of jumper dress would be a great choice for vintage wearing gals who work in most office settings. It's incredibly comfy, too, so would be a cinch for hours of sitting and/or typing, plus you can wear it with a near endless array of tops, sweaters, blouses and even tees (say, for casual Friday). <br /><br />It really is and I don't ever take the fact that I have one for granted. Tony's help with that side of my blogging has been transformative to my blog (as well as things like my self-confidence and ability to feel somewhat comfortable in front of a camera lens). I make a point to earnestly thank him for his time and help after each shoot and truly appreciate that he's able to assist me on the outfit photo front. <br /><br />I hope that you had a sunny, terrific weekend and that the coming month will be a marvelous one from start to finish for you.<br /><br />Tons of hugs & joyful August wishes,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.com
