Dream Costume

2)

Dear Halloween Fairy,

I can't even begin to tell you how long I've been searching for the perfect vintage majorette uniform. Yes, I know that is completely random, but it's true. I even have an email notification for every time some one lists "vintage majorette" on Ebay but have my heart broken every time because they're never quite perfect.

Long story short, it's been a long week and it would do wonders to wake up and find this under my pillow. Or under my tree? Or where ever you leave things? K? Thanks a million.

Love,
SJV

That vintage majorette dress is gorgeous! I think it is sweet you have been searching for a uniform like this.

Maybe you could start a little majorette fund! I bet if everyone chipped in some money you could have that dress! :}

Lovely! I can totally imagine this as your style too!

omg! I was a majorette in high school! Those were my school colors even, the green and white! Although my uniform did not look like this one.

Thanks for the Itty Bitty Kitty Committee blog reccomendation. A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E. If you don't know this one already - have a look at Kitty Stampede.

That is sweet. My mom used to be a baton twirler and even marched in a parade or two. That dress doesn't look too hard to make...

Catherine Blair Pfander said...

Oooo, what a good idea! I like the one you've posted, although it could require six hours of bleaching to get rid of those serious pit stains.
