HERE’S THE LINGERIE SECRET UNDER THE SECRETARY DRESS

IMG_1738Ho, hum.  Traditional, classic, conservative .  Yes, there’s a time and place for the secretary dress last shown, but then what if you put this underneath?! . . . . . . . . . . . .

I was truly tickled pink to find this!  I have several true vintage slips now with the crystal-pleated flounce at the hem, but not a black one!!  All the colors, plus basic white and beige are wonderful, but black lingerie is ESSENTIAL!

These Forties/Fifties slips are truly beautiful and usually just the right lengths to wear with styles from the same era.  In some cases, they are absolutely necessary in order to make a dress fit and feel the way that it was intended to.

So, when you’re all conservative and straight-laced for the office or whatever, you don’t have to step out of your true vintage mood or give up luxury and quality in order to have a little secret fun . . . . . . . .
