Baroque and Metallic

September 8, 2012

Is it just me or does the picture above look like it could be a poster of a Sofia Coppola's film? I am totally okay with that since Sofia Coppola is my favorite director. The image reminds me of The Virgin Suicides... airy, feminine, and a little lost. Anyways, this is my second BB Dakota post featuring the Carla Dress. My inner vintage granny simply cannot resist this gorgeous baroque pattern. An elegant silhouette with a modern cut and beautiful colors with a subtle touch of metallic. I made the outfit a little more playful by adding colorful and metallic accessories. Oh, and did I mention the dress has pockets? Now, that's a bonus!

    Those shots are gorgeous (not to mention the dress) :) They are very Sofia Coppola-esque which can only be great thing.

    This dress is fantastic! I love the cutout in the back. Your ballerina bun is so adorable too. And I'm loving the pretty lighting in these pictures.

    What a gorgeous dress! And isn't it always better when dresses have pockets? It's like a little secret. :) That first photo is gorgeous and The Virgin Suicides is absolutely one of my favorite movies. Love your blog and am now following! <3
