Don't feel bad, so many vintage dresses and (especially) circle skirts were made for those with super teeny waists. The gorgeous pink and white frock here might work for you, it fits up to a 30" waist. <br /><br />Thanks again - big hugs,<br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-60277709246576163912013-02-26T23:22:11.577-08:002013-02-26T23:22:11.577-08:00Love this post!

Love all the dresses, and if I could screw (as we say in Denmark, and it has nothing to do with the F-word) myself into the pink one, I had bought it on the spot. But alas my waist is 29-30, and not in the small twenties as vintage dresses most often are. Love your writing. :)SANNEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12973437247117000140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-64942721332349336102013-02-26T08:05:45.820-08:002013-02-26T08:05:45.820-08:00I am all for your same pick: the pink dress, just ...I am all for your same pick: the pink dress, just plain gorgeous.Lorenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16720997862417551402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-19757692084495971852013-02-26T03:58:48.232-08:002013-02-26T03:58:48.232-08:00Oh that pink dress is glorious, I can see why you ...Oh that pink dress is glorious, I can see why you like it so much and the circle skirt too is lovely, but eeeek!

That pink dress is so, so marvelous! If my budget would have permitted, I would have snapped it up on the spot (alas, such was not the case). <br /><br />Yes, I have (medically diagnosed) celiac disease and am extremely sensitive to even the most minute amount of gluten. I become incredibly, horribly ill if I have any gluten (and remain ill for weeks afterwards), so I must avoid it like the plague. I agree that more and more people are developing celiac disease, gluten sensitivity and gluten allergies in recent years. In part awareness of these conditions may also simply be allowing more people who perhaps might have other wise suffered without a diagnosis, be able to get to the route cause of what may be ailing them (gluten!!!). <br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-90603495636806373032013-02-24T00:42:44.547-08:002013-02-24T00:42:44.547-08:00What a great post!
