I am so excited to have Andrea from Andi B Goode sharing an outfit today! She’s one of my favorite vintage bloggers, and I hope you’ll enjoy seeing her lovely outfit (with that drool-worthy travel bag). Be sure to check out her Tumblr while you’re at it! – ♥ Casey

Outfit details: 1980s sunglasses – Lost and Found Market; 1950s dress – Red Ruby Vintage; belt – gift; bracelets – various (vintage & secondhand); stockings – What Katie Did; shoes – KMart.

This dress is one of my go-to pieces for the warmer months. It has many of my favourite features for a dress including pockets (so handy!) and it buttons all the way down, which makes it a lot easier to get into than many of my dresses. It’s also really versatile – it’s so easy to dress it up or down and it’s the perfect kind of dress for those days when you need to go from lunch to a lecture (as I did) or from work to dinner or any number of activities. And it’s actually really comfortable, to boot.

I used my new-to-me airline bag as a handbag and, while it may be a little tricky digging through it to find what you need – it’s such a good size for carrying my lecture notebooks and everything else I need that I think it’s going to be seeing a lot more outings.

The pattern on the dress is so interesting  and I love how it creates a larger pattern when you look at the dress as a whole using lighter and darker sections of the smaller pattern.
