batty for betsey

Yes, my darling dears, it's once again BETSEY TIME!!! Nothing gets more into the blogging spirit than some new, pretty Betsey dresses to salivate over. And then get really depressed about, since I will never own them.

I have pin-pointed what I love about these dresses:
For the most part, they are FITTED. None of this tent/maternity bullshit that is EVERYWHERE. Drapey, shapeless and UGLY. I went to Forever 21 yesterday and I could not find *one* dress that had any kind of fitted shape to it. I'm short, I can't pull off this tenty crap, nor would I want to. Stories are always circulating about Forever 21 ripping off major designers. Hey Forev - why don't you rip off Betsey? Give me a cutie-pie Betsey-esque dress for $20 and I promise I will stop perusing your store with a disgusted scowl on my face. Thanx xoxoxoxo.

Without further ado, on with the cuteness!

Bluebell...to hell...


I have a huge crush on gingham. I actually have a vintage gingham Betsey dress but it's way too big for me and not nearly as cute as this:


This kind of reminds of something I would wear as a kid. But obviously not strapless.


Polka dots + halter = always good. And the polka-dots are bit different than your standard, and I like that very much.

Update: Mission NKOTB

I am officially the proud owner of two tickets to New Kids on the fuckin' Block! And you, YOU are so jealous that you just want to DIEEEEEEEEEE.

I haven't updated here in awhile, but I'll get to back to it. I've just been super-busy and I haven't had time to focus on the mundane, unimportant posts that populate my blog.
