Pandemic Resort

May 25, 2020,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I may not be able to go to an actual resort right now, but I can certainly dress like it! I made this outfit using a retro-fabric and a classic silhouette for a 50s resort wear look. And of course I made a matching mask because we’re still in the midst of this pandemic. The dress is actually a matching set, a shirt and a skirt. I’m a big fan of this way of doing things because you get three looks for the price of one which is especially handy while traveling. 

Shirt, Skirt, and Mask: handmade by me with fabric from Hobby Lobby, Belt: rescued from a foreclosed house, Shoes: gifted Tieks
