White Shift
Better late than never, right? It’s been really hard to get outfit photos in lately. I don’t even know why. When my husband is home on the weekends it just seems like our schedule is jam packed and the last thing my hubby wants to do is take pictures…haha. But he does it anyway because he loves me. I was also experimenting with shooting in the RAW setting. It didn’t work out so well for me and made it really difficult to edit my photos. And for some reason they have these weird black lines around the outside. If anyone has suggestions for shooting in RAW I’d love to hear them!
Dress: H&M (recent)(similar), Shoes: Same Edelman via DSW, Scarf: Madewell (love this), Bracelets: Stella and Dot Christina Link + Arrow Bangle, Belt: H&M, Sunnies: H&M |
Anyway, back to the outfit! I’ve been wanting a white lacy dress for awhile now. I just could never find the right one. I had been thinking I wanted a shift dress with sleeves. But then I saw this one at H&M. I like it because it has a fitted waist with a slightly flared skirt. I just feel like that style is always more flattering. And I really liked the pattern of the lace. It reminds me of this Anthropologie dress. So my search is over, for now. I still do like the idea of a lacy dress with sleeves but I know this dress will be great for summer.
And speaking of gorgeous dresses – Dalena Vintage has some amazing vintage dresses! Here’s more information about this cute Etsy shop!
Founded in 2008, Dalena Vintage was born of an ongoing love affair between one girl and her adoration of vintage clothing. Each piece is hand-selected for it’s beauty, purity and quality. The result is a collection of dreamy vintage in which girls can lose themselves.
Leslie Torbett is the all-around gal at Dalena Vintage, co-owner of BelovedVintage Bridal and an independent stylist. Based in Austin, Leslie spends her days processing the vintage treasures she finds exploring the nooks and crannies of Texas. Her finds range from romantic Edwardian wedding gowns to mod mini dresses; taking note of everything in between and carefully curating along the way.
Leslie recently quit her full-time job to run DalenaVintage full-time! “I’m approaching three months in and I’m grateful everyday! I was selling mostly dresses and hats from the 1900s through the 1960s. But as I expand, you can expect to see more jewelery, separates and lingerie.”
**Oh, and I promise that giveaway I mentioned on Friday is coming tomorrow!**

Very pretty!
Hmmmm, I'm not sure how RAW works for me, I juts upload them to my computer and then process them. I'm sort of wondering if I'm missing a step myself??! Ha!
I love that dress! You're right, it'll be perfect for this summer! I haven't attempted shooting in RAW, though I've been told that it's fantastic 😉 good luck! Let me know if you learn anything!
I am loving the scarf! Feels so french–I'm always looking for ways to tie on a scarf, and this is perfection, especially paired with the white lacy dress.

What a gorgeous lace dress – great find! I was reading some blog and about photo mistakes and you should always take them raw instead of jpeg. I am way to novice with my camera to even know the difference.

Such a pretty dress, Jessica! Great styling as well 🙂
I haven't had much luck at H&M lately and I don't know why! I wish I could find pieces like this! I absolutely love your dress Jessica! Looks so pretty with the Madewell scarf and brown strappy sandals! 🙂
I only shoot raw and I love it, gives you so much more room to edit – what program are you using to process them?
Love this lace dress too, I am a sucker for all things white.
