So here is the final dress option for the Swing Out To Victory Dance this weekend.
My hair didn't turn out as cool as last time. I guess I need more practise.
I bought the dress at Cabaret Vintage when we found out we were going to the dance a few weeks back.
I took it in a bit, had it shortened and have a little petticoat underneath which I see is peaking out a bit. I will need to tighten the elastic on the waist so it doesn't keep slipping should I decide to wear it.
It is amazing how the hat goes with all three dresses.
I've included some vintage rhinestone earrings here too that I picked up at an Estate sale.
I acquired yesterday's dress when I went back to Cabaret Vintage about 2 weeks ago for a huge sale and Tai was sweet enough to discount the piece enough that I simply could not leave it behind.
That is how I ended up buying two dresses for one dance.
I won't be making any costume changes at the dance so I need to just pick one.
Which one do you think I'll choose?
I'm hoping to get photos of hubby and my girlfriend all dressed up.
Let me know…which one would you choose?
Dress #1
Dress #2
Dress #3

Rachel says
You do look very good in green, too! I think any one of these outfits would be perfect!
Tamera the Menopausal Supermodel says
the last dress is stunning but I’m still going with #2!!
Shybiker says
Gorgeous. You have wonderful taste. And (*envy showing*) you wear these dresses so well.
Patti @ NotDeadYet Style says
Three beauties! I was on Team #1 but I’m switching to Team #3 – the green is so fetching.
Vix says
You look beautiful in all three but, like Tamera, I’m backing team 2! Have a wonderful time and take lots of photos! xxx
Val Sparkle says
The green is very pretty on you. It’s a tough call between numbers 2 and 3, but I think I prefer 2. But if you want a brighter color, then go for 3.
MfB says
Love all these throwback outfits. The first green dress especially. Thanks for posting the photos and feel free to drop by me too anytime.
Sue @ A Colourful Canvas says
Oh Oh! A third choice… I’m in the minority here…I love look #1, as in weak at the knees love. There’s just something about it. Maybe it’s the self fabric belt, or maybe I just imagine a lady from the 40’s seeing the beautiful red/pink colour of this dress and knowing it will make her the belle of the ball.
I know it’s not going to win…you look beautiful in each dress…have a wonderful, magical evening!
Suzanne says
Rachel you’re no help at all! LOL
Suzanne says
There is something about a fit and flare dress that just makes the body look very feminine. Do you have any?
Suzanne says
I would have guessed you would pick the red and pink. It is the one I could see you wearing. : )
No Fear of Fashion says
Amazing how good they all look on you. You were born in the wrong area. I vote for the third one. More in tune with the season. The first one is very pretty as well, but very summery.
Really, really good style. And of course styled well too, with the hair, the hat and shoes. Great job.
Have a lovely time.

Bingo! 😉 You know me better than I know myself. {Hugs}
Kristian says
Well, I like looks 2 and 3, but three is my favorite. The skirt flares more (more fun for twirls) and green is so lovely on you. Gorgeous.
Ann says
These dresses are amazing. Hard to choose one but I think I like the red and pink patterned dress. They all look like they were made for you!

Still lovin’ #1, but I think I have to go with #3…
Have fun at the dance and definitely get some pics!

Whoa, tough choice, and I realize that right now, you’re probably AT the dance. They are all brilliant dresses, but #3 has the fullest, swingiest skirt, so it’s my fave for dancing. I think a peek o’ petticoat is a good thing 🙂
Gabriala Brown says
Suzanne, you look so fabulous in all three I can’t choose! So good to see you. Miss your blog. xo
Happiness at Mid Life says
All great choices Suzanne! #3 is the winner for me. The shape of it is so pretty on you and I like how the petticoat peeks out from it too. Have fun at your dance!

Hope you are well Gabriala…haven’t seen much of you lately. Thanks for popping in.
Suzanne says

Anja says
