Oh, Dolly

I kind of love Dolly Parton.  Lately, I've been noticing that my dresses are resembling her more and more.  I think I secretly want to be her... minus the back aches, if you know what I mean.


For me, red gingham = love.  I don't know what is happening to me.  ;)

Here's a little proof:

One of my most favorite dresses right now!  I also scored a vintage denim and red gingham dress from RVA recently, and it fits like it was made for me!  I adore it.  I'll post pictures of it soon.  In the meantime, just call me Dolly...

xoxo

  7. I made sure to get a front row seat when Dolly sang at my graduation last year... of course in tow was her stylist who had a back-up wig ready for the quick-change from orange & fringe dress and big hair during Rocky Top into a cap & gown to receive her honorary doctorate! Style icon! *Love*

  8. I have wanted to be Dolly since I could sing her songs. I seriously think I feel even closer to you now that we share a love for her. Sounds weird? Probably. But I don't care. It's me. :)

    You make me want to wear gingham, too. However, I am way too awkward looking to pull it off I think.

  22. In high school I would get dresses that remind me of women that I adore. I have a Lucille Ball, a Audrey Hepburn, and a Dolly Parton. My Dolly Parton dress is gingham and pink. I remember picking it out for my graduation party and three years later I still love it.

    Your version of Dolly is very cute.

  23. Dolly Parton is my hero.
    I'm also a huge fan of vintage country music.
    And gingham.

    COME ON SPRING!
