Yet more photos from my shoot in the arboretum last thursday.. Yet more clothes owned by my great-grandma, (mum's-dad's-mother). This dress is an original 50's creation that was found in the attic when the house was being cleared out - hence the title - a dress that has been asleep for decades gets a new outing and turns its face to the sun. It's the first time I've worn it, and unfortunately it's slightly too big, as well as the elastic having perished, so I had to enlist the help of a trusty safety pin.
There's something about graffic floral prints that always makes me smile. This is definitely a rather bold dress... And the summery scenery definitely compliments it. I felt like a giant flower against the greenery.
I wore it with peep toe shoes that I was given after doing the vintage photo shoot for the wonderful Bertie's vintage shop.
The gold battered locket came from my favourite vintage and antique stall in my local market town. (A bargain, at £5). It's actually quite dangerous for me to visit Rosie's stall, as I'm in peril of parting with more money than I plan!

I love the last shot of the cat. It tried very persistently to make its way into the photos.. Much more of a poser than me!
