I'm so happy to introduce this next dress. It's fun and mod and (drumroll, please?)…… black and white! Emma chose to model this dress because she fell in love with it when she was trying on a sample. It's so cute on her!
The First Date Dress is inspired by the mod 1960s! This dress is simple, fun and playful. It has the cutest pockets and collar and is an easy to wear shift dress fit.
In look one Emma layered a vintage blouse under her dress for a casual look. She wore cute geeky accessories, like glasses and knee socks, for a fun back-to-school inspired styling.
For Emma's second look she wore my oversized pin-on bow tie (D.I.Y. here). It's fun to add bows, ascot ties, and even bow belts to simple dresses!
In look three Emma is looking beautifully 90s inspired. She paired a vintage leather jacket with leopard Dr. Martens. I love this combination, so unexpected for a mod dress… fun!
Oh… Just for kicks, I asked my pals on twitter to help me name this dress! I recieved a ton of adorable ideas and Twinkie Chan came up with the perfect name. Oh twitter… Gotta love the internet. XO, elsie

So totally cute! I like that 90’s inspired looks. So grunge.
This dress is so beautiful. It’s all in the details, and it’s so good with layers! I am loving the 2nd look, but I am crazy about how easily it transforms to give a completely different look when the accessories are changed up!
OT but that leather jacket is amazing, I’ve been looking for one like that for ages! I really enjoy the idea of a previously loved one instead of one I’d have to break in myself. 🙂

This dress is so cute! I’d love to wear it <3
I like the simple details of the dress, such as the collar and the pockets. The simple contrast of black and white is classic, and like you said, brings to mind the Modern 60’s. My favourite combination is the one with the pin-on bow tie.

I love this dress! I can’t pin point what about it (the clean look? the fun pockets? the mod styling?), but it’s really amazing! Emma’s looks are all to die for especially 1 and 3! <3
I love look 3!
Great dress and great name! Big fan of the collar and pockets 🙂

Emma totally rocks that dress I never would have thought of buying it but seeing it with boots all 90’s I am changing my mind – too many red velvet dreations I want and too small a purse!
