Me sitting on the naughty step!
Dress from "The Looking Glass" Bridgnorth (they have an Ebay store)

A full size shot (please excuse the odd expression and slight double chin, not too flattering)
The bit with the bakelite buttons is a false grown on bolero. And I love the white collar with jabot (have steered clear of a jabot before as I feared the ruffles would make me look a bit too "booby" - didn't think that was a particularly 1930s look... but it seems to hide rather than accentuate my decollotage!)
Now I've just got to find an occasion to wear it. I've suggested to 'im indoors a trip to see "The Mousetrap" ... he's not so keen, maybe as I've Agatha'd him out with the Poirot DVD box set?!

That is quite gorgeous - did you make it from a vintage pattern or have you been mending a vintage buy? Well done, either way!
Alas, I cannot boast to making it, but it was fixed by me!
