Today I wore white with black tights. I found this vintage dress recently and thought it would be fun to make a snazzy lace briefcase to match! I don't know about you, but I really enjoy wearing white. What's your favorite color to wear in the summertime?
Outfit Details: Dress/Vintage, Lace Briefcase/self made (I'll be sharing the D.I.Y. later tonight!), Sunglasses/Vintage, Necklace/UO, Swedish Hasbeens/borrowed from Katie.

Your hair is adorable!
Great outfit! I love wearing white in the summer too. I have the most amazing white dress + tights outfit planned for tomorrow, in fact!
Gah! I wish I’d seen this post sooner! I just saw a cool looking brief case at the thrift store the other day! I briefly thought about getting it but had no idea what I’d do with it. Now I wish I had got it! >.<
Color on color is my fave…not colorblocking…just loads of fresh and fun summer hues!
I’ve yet to rock the white since I’m always running around town schlepping around materials for clients…I’m always getting dirty booo…
But you look fabulous babe!

Darling outfit. I love a good, clean white lace dress.
Love the briefcase! So cute and it makes you look extra professional :).
That dress is absolutely gorgeous!
The perfect summer outfit!! My personal summer favorite is peach!
Gorgeous dress! xo
You wear sixties-style outfits better than anyone I’ve ever seen! Everything is just perfect here–from the delicate lace dress to the pretty brown accents to your romantic hair!
I actually just bought (and shortened) a really neat cream-colored 70’s dress. I always feel a bit costumey wearing white and cream clothes, but this post is definitely inspiring me in that direction! 😉
LOVING that hair! SO cute!
Love,

Straight out of the 60s! You look incredible, Elsie.
This is adoorable Elsie, I particularly love your shoes! I love white but I always get a bit paranoid when I wear it that I will spill something on myself or sit on something haha. It’s worth it though because it’s so pretty! <3
really love the pattern of the dress.
I think I love yellow for the summer (:
it’s hard to choose!

That dress is dreamy! I love how you styled it!

super cute!
You’re hair is amazing! Just gorgeous!! Love this whole look! White is definitely my favorite summer color to wear as well, although I’m a walking talking spill waiting to happen – that’s why I’m always armed with a tide stick!

i love that briefcase!
You look gorgeous!
And i so love white too! Actually i think it’s just perfect during the summer to light the face up, as well as a fluffy, white sweater is for the winter!
I love wearing white and other neutral colours all the time! It’s my favourite. Except then I usually spill something like pasta sauce on myself… Eep! Hehe. In summer I like to add more florals and lace into the mix~ Mori Girl style is a big inspiration for me 🙂
Oh, Elsie, you’re prettieer every day!
I love blue all year round, but during the summer I channel the 70’s and 50’s, so look at light denim blues. Your dress is so cute! and your hair! GORGE!
hehe you remind me of Jackie O in the first pic! So cute!
i love to wear navy blue and white together..all year round! 🙂 more white in the summertime and more navy blue and brown in the wintertime.

i’ve been big into chambray and mustard this summer. i cant wait until it cools down here (in louisiana) so i can start wearing tights again!
I guess, no matter what the season is, I love wearing blush colors. Even since I dyed my hair brown (I am officially blonde, very blonde), I love wearing light colors because they suit my skin tone and darker hair. I also love white, but somehow hardly have any whites in my wardrobe.
This dress you’re wearing is beautiful – the lace, the length, the cut. Pretty!

White is definitely a perfect summer colour, I also love green – who knows why!
Hi Deb, the shoes are Swedish Hasbeens. I believe Katie found them on eBay, but I’ve also seen them on ModCloth!
Oh I love that dress..
I love your lip color!
I also wore a lace dress recently…
