Slow Fashion Dress #3

This is an 80's dress which my lovely friend Sacramento sent me some time ago and I've always worn it as a layered piece in the winter (see it in mar2016 when I was thinner, but I'm on my way now!)
I've named it a 'Nine to Five' dress (because of the 1980 film and tv series which I watched as a teenager). I think it's totally the kind of dress that a woman working as a secretary or clerk could wear in the 80's. That was not my style then and not sure if it could be my style now. However I think that any dress can be styled differently just adding some accessories and a pair of modern-looking shoes. Incidentally, when I was trying to choose between these two necklaces, my inner voice told me to wear both of them, so I did it. My inner stylist's advice on accessorizing is usually 'pile them up, lady' ;DD
You can see other '9 to 5' dresses I wore previously here and here, even if I think these outfits need some improvement.
Linking Visible Monday and wishing you a visible week and a Slow Fashion Season.

Este es un vestido que me regaló mi amiga la genial Sacramento hace algún tiempo y que siempre había llevado en invierno, con varias capas encima y debajo (podéis verlo en mar2016, cuando estaba más delgada, pero estoy haciendo el camino de vuelta!)
Lo he llamado un vestido '9 to 5' porque me recuerda mucho a la película y la serie de tv De nueve a cinco de los ochenta, es totalmente el tipo de vestido que podía llevar una oficinista por aquel entonces. No era mi estilo entonces y no sé muy bien si podría serlo ahora. Sin embargo creo que cualquier vestido puede cambiar muchísimo simplemente cambiándole los accesorios y con unas sandalias o zapatos actuales. A propósito de accesorios, cuando intentaba decidirme entre estos dos collares, mi intuición me dijo que mejor llevase los dos. Parece que, en cuestión de accesorios, mi intuición siempre me va a aconsejar llevarlos Todos. ;DD
Podéis ver otros vestidos '9 to 5' que llevé anteriormente aquí y aquí aunque creo que el estilo no está muy logrado, puede mejorarse!
Enlazo al Visible Monday lunes visible y os deseo una semana muy visible y un verano libre de ropa de usar y tirar.

  2. "Pile them up" is good advice! I love the way the turquoise necklace picks out one of the colours from the print.

  7. I actually think you are looking fabulous in that 1980s dress. You are absolutely right: you can put any dress up-to-date, or adapt it to your style, by choosing the right accessories, like you did here. The two necklaces together are a match made in heaven! xxx

  8. I love this dress - it's very good on your figure, makes you look very curvy and luscious! The trick with real vintage is to mix in contemporary accessories, which you've done perfectly. Love this look!

  9. The dress may not be the style you usually wear, but it is certainly your colours, and you make it look modern with your accessories.
