Romantic Dresses

Much as it makes my mother clutch her pearls, I've always really loved clothes with a retro lingerie vibe. Lately, I'd been ogling beaded silk dresses with a whiff of flapper. Much as they can be a romantic or sexy thing, I'd love to wear them with grandpa sweaters and slouchy boots. Of course you can always dress them up again for the holidays.Top: white lace dress, Mod Cloth $57.99
