| Wearing: 50′s dress from Adore Vintage | Fada Beaded Collar | Vintage purse | Thrifted shoes |
Yes, I had a coat… but it was quite ill-befitting with this outfit, so it kept the weeds warm while we shot these photos. Although honestly, it’s been almost freakishly warm here… since when is Indiana warm in the Winter time? Well, I’m quite alright with that – keep it coming Mother Nature! I’m seriously looking forward to Spring, you know… I always say that, but I am just plain sick of these straggly-looking trees dominating our photos! Garh, garh!
I am in loooove with this dress. I had been eyeballing it for quite a while until I finally captured it for myself. If you have a spare moment, check out Adore Vintage where I bought it… her shop is FABULOUS.
You’re always such a natural in front of the camera. I wish I could be like that! :)
Me, a natural?!! I thought I was surely the most awkward person alive. You know how to make a girl feel good about herself, hehe :)

Oh, Aya! You look so pretty! That dress is to die for.
Thank you so much, Emma! :))

I actually didn’t mind the bare trees in your photos. They add a little character! Hehe. I know what you mean about a freakishly warm Winter. I practically wear a t-shirt and a light cardigan most days. Makes you wonder what Summer will be like. Eeek. Anyway, enjoy the lovely weather in Indiana! :)
Thank you so much ^_^
♥ Aya
I adore your hair!! Do you do it with pincurls? :)
Yes, pin curls! And then I brushed them out to curl under :)
♥ Aya
Wow! It looks so great! I looked at your pin curls video, so helpful! Thanks so much! <3
Everything about this is just so beautiful! The dress, the collar, your hair! I love that photo with your face in your hands too. : )
Adorable! Lovelovelove your dress!
Thanks so much!

That’s such a pretty dress. I really love the butterfly print on it. And the beaded collar looks so great.

I adore that necklace! At first I thought it was really hard to wear because I was trying to match it with collars that fit it… but now I just wear it with dresses it doesn’t match at all and it’s just much easier! heehee :)
♥ Aya
You look lovely, I also hope that spring comes early this year!
you look adorable…love your dress and necklace
ah! GORGEOUS dress! it look perfect on you! so so pretty!
Thank you so much! ^_^
♥ Aya
You are always so stunning Aya!! And these photos, sigh, I’m always endlessly inspired by the beautiful photography!! I’m also a little jealous of your warmer weather – we’ve hit a cold spell this week. Boo! Happy Tuesday, love! xo veronika
Gorgeous dress and such a great setting too!
love the trees and meadow! lovely :)
you change your hair color eh? it’s lil bit darker now
Thank you! Since it was the strawberry blonde or again since I dyed it auburn? I’ve dyed it once since the strawberry blonde, but not darker a second time :) I enjoyed the blonde, but the maintenance was a bit pricy for me… sigh!
♥ Aya
This dress is absolutely amazing!! What a gorgeous piece of vintage clothing, it looks so gorgeous on you. These are amazing photos. So lovely!

Your outfitphotos are the best around. I love this backdrop! I want to find a place like this near my house :) xo Nikki
That dress is PERFECT on you! It fits you so well. It has been kind of a weird winter, hasn’t it? We got so much snow last year, and none this year!
The dress us too cute and I totally want that collar! <3

That dress is amazing! You look beautiful darling :)
Wow, the cut and fit of that dress are just lovely. The butterfly print is great as well. You’re definitely a natural in front of the camera and take such beautiful photos.
We’ve been having uncharacteristically warm weather here in Ohio as well. It’s making me dream of Spring and dresses!
Me a natural?! Well, I’m glad it comes off that way :3 I feel like, for ever ten photos I get one good one. LOL!
♥ Aya
This is such a lovely post. I giggled when you mentioned your coat keeping the weeds warm. And I love how you wore that collar as a necklace! Such an interesting idea.
heehee! You giggling about it made ME giggle :3

Where in Indiana are you? I’m in Cincinnati, OH just across the border.
I live in Bloomington, near Indianapolis! We really aren’t far at all :)

I truly admire each and every woman who prefers dresses and skirts from the 50s. It gives you such a fantastic air of femininity and womanhood. Your husband is one lucky guy! All the best! Anders, Sweden
heehee, Thanks!

Thank you so much, Laura! (=^_^=)
♥ Aya
also love the dreamy print of this dress so subtly enhanced by the delicate lace collar. your photos are always splendid despite the “straggling looking trees” ;)
Wonderful photos ! You look so beautiful :)
You changed your hair around, I see. I really like it like this!!! Very beautiful photos and dress.
Yeah… the maintenance got too expensive for me at inconvenient times, and I was weary of bleaching it myself lol :’(

love the dress! gorgeous photos!
Gosh, that dress is gorgeous. That beaded collar is darling too. And your hair is about perfect. I’m a tad bit envious.
I am so with you on the dead, dreary backgrounds. Most of my outfit photos have been taken indoors as of late. It’s just so ugly out there. Come on spring!

Oh, you don’t need to be envious! It’s an easy hairstyle to do :) Just pin-curl your hair and brush it out with a curling brush to curl underneath! I think I even have a youtube video on it, if you’d like the link…
♥ Aya
This dress is so beautiful and fits you so wonderfully. I love the vintage look of it. You have such a lovely sense of style.

This dress is gorgeous Aya! I know this weather has been really crazy lately, here in NY sometimes is really, really warm and sometimes is really, really cold, I just can’t wait for spring any much longer, are you?

Oh, I am SOO excited about Spring! I get really anxious for it every year… I just hate being cold and cooped up in the house! :)
♥ Aya
you look divine, Aya! Love everything about this shoot– especially the way all of the colors compliment each other :)
I am in serious spring mode as well & the weather is not helping– just yesterday it was close to 60º in NY! I can’t wait for everything to be lovely & green again (for more than a weekend)! :)
best, corinne
I would like to praise the creator of this blog for his work! Great posts, cute design and frequent updates! Keep up the good work!
This dress is just so so pretty! I absolutely love it. Your collar is adorable too.
Sigh, I always adore each one of your dresses in particular your vintage numbers (what you normally wear anyway =3 ). I tend to pair cardigans with dresses [too] when it’s still chilly/cold outside. Although, you could wear a sweater over it and make it seem as if you’re just wearing a wonderful full skirt. =)
Love the beaded collar necklace!
