Cottage in the Country

I'm fairly new to the Bernie Dexter brand, however, I'm quickly falling in love with her dresses.  Luckily, I've scored some incredible deals on ebay that have allowed me to try her dresses without much personal investment. 

This dress is my most recent acquisition.  I originally fell in love with the fabric, the cottage scene is beautiful, however, I wasn't sure about the cut of the dress.  The neckline is so high, it ends right at the base of my neck.  When I first tried on the dress, the neck bothered me a bit, so I retied the ties at the back of the dress.  This fixed the problem for the most part and I had no issues while wearing the dress at work the next day. 
 

 

With both of the Bernie Dexter's that I own, I've found the bust and waist shape to be very flattering for my measurements.  I am also a fan of the swing skirt with pockets.  The dresses that I own do seem to have less fabric in the skirt than the Pinup Couture Jenny dresses (another favorite of mine) but I don't mind! I can't wait to add more Bernie Dexter's to my collection!
