how did you come up with the name of your blog? The name of the blog: "That's my dress" came from random things like my love for dresses: so easy to wear and you don't have to spend half an hour in front of the closet trying to find the right combination...just put it on and go. Also I thought about the feeling I get when I see a beautiful dress at some shop and fall in love with it...:) how do you discribe your style?
My style is kind of all over the place, but I tend to go for elegant, romantic, feminine and chic most of the times.
what made you start a fashion blog? I started my blog because I fell in love with blogs like Fashion toast, The cherry blossom girl, Kingdom of style Cashemier & Soie and many others...at that time I already had a blog in Hebrew, but it wasn't about my personal style, so I decided I should open another one:)

what do you think you bring to the fashion blog world? I honestly don't know... with so many great bloggers out there it's really hard to think of something :) how is your style different than everyone else? I know that my style stands out from everyone else's at my hometown, because the dress code here is T shirts and jeans, but in fashion blogging, there are so many styles and fashions, that what makes you unique is how you interpret the trend, wear the same garment, the personal aspect of it... each and every one of us is unique and that is why it it interesting to follow and to see many different people: it varies from one to another...

who is your insperation? I have plenty of inspiration sources: editorials, runways, other bloggers, friends, random people I see on the street sometimes...
what impression do you want to leave on the people that visits your blog? I only hope people will enjoy reading the blog, see something that awakens interest in them and see how deep my love for fashion and clothes (and shoes!!!)


"I hope you enjoy"...

Ugly pretty things דברים יפים מלוכלכים

לפעמים משהו הוא כל כך מכוער שמרוב כיעור הוא כבר נהיה יפה. אני חושבת שזה מאוד נכון לגבי החגורה הזאת שמצאתי בארון של אמא. פעם בתקופה אני עושה שם חיפוש בתקווה למצוא פריטים מדליקים, אמא כמובן בעד וייאמר לזכותה שהיא שומרת את הדברים גם כשהם כבר קטנים עליה או יצאו מהאופנה. כבר מספר פעמים יצא לי להיתקל בחגורה הזאת וכל פעם חשבתי לעצמי שהיא פשוט מזעזעת. בפעם האחרונה החלטתי שזה סוד קסמה ומאז היא חלק מהארון שלי.

גופייה - Gap
ג'ינס - ליוויס 501 ישן
נעליים - unisa
חגורה - ישנה, מהארון של אמא

Sometimes something is just so ugly that it becomes pretty. I found this belt in my mom's closet and I think it demonstrates my point exactly. Once in a while I do a search in my mom's closet, hoping to find cool pieces and every time I saw this belt I thought it's horrible. The last time I began thinking that mabey that's the magic and since than it's mine.

shirt - Gap
jeans - old 501 Levis
shoes - Unisa
belt - old, from mom's closet

StyleCard: Atomic Amour Heels

Sometimes I just cannot resist a hint of Gothic Lolita, and on a trip to Atomic I stumbled upon what are seemingly simple decorated black heels, worn with the right dress they become a perfect compliment to this more theatrical fashion diversion. Which came first, the dress or the shoes? In this case it was the dress, but occasionally you get lucky and find the perfect shoe after the fact, as was the case here. The Amour Heels by Atomic Footwear are a great rounded toe chunky heel with wonderful texturing and great attention to prim extras. A touch of lace around the foot opening, and the bead and bow decoration on the ankle add a ton of personality to these pumps.

The EXIA Gothic Dress is a find on it's own, I can barely remember finding it, the poofy ballerina skirt and leather buttoned corset with lace accent, are just one wearing option for the set, which comes with stockings, prim bow garters and sleeves. Simplifying the look makes it less costumey and more mainstream in my opinion. Some stunning jewelry from Donna Flora and a bright red lip compliment the sculptural hair from JE*REPUBLIC, to complete my StyleCard.

The Stuff;

Shoes - Amour Heels - Black, ATOMIC Footwear

Dress - Gothic Dress - Black, EXIA

Skin - June Sundust Frex - Swan 2, Gala Phoenix

Hair - Garam Smoky, JE*REPUBLIC

Accessories - Venus Ruby Set, Donna Flora & Basic Prim Nails - Red 05, Candy Nail.

Vogue Paris Editorial (scans by AngelLover at TFS)

There was a John Galliano picture here, but I took it down because the fact that the model's face was painted black made me more than a little uncomfortable.

Looklet, the new Polyvore?

לפני כמה ימים נתקלתי לראשונה ב LookLet, אתר שהוא סוג של Polyvore על גבי דוגמנית. בוחרים את הפנים, בוחרים את הרקע ומלבישים את הדוגמנית מכף רגל ועד ראש. נשמע מושלם? בפועל עדיין לא. לא כל הבגדים מולבשים באופן האופטימלי, במיוחד התיקים והנעליים, לכן המראה הכללי נותר מעט מאולץ. חוץ מזה מגוון הפריטים מאוד מצומצם יחסית למבחר הענק ב polyvore אבל ייתכן וזה ישתפר עם הזמן. לשיפוטכם.

A few days ago I bumped into LookLet, a site that is kind of a version of Polyvore with models. you choose the face, you choose the background and you dress the model from head to toe. Sounds perfect? Not yet. The clothes don't always fit exactly, especially the shoes and the bags, and the overall look is a bit artificial and unnatural. Besides there isn't the same variety and choice as there is in Polyvore but that might get better with time. I'll leave it to your judgment.

StyleCard: Rebel Hope Milan Boots

Sure it's Summer, but what the heck... let's wear us some boots!

Rebel Hope Designs released some really nice ones recently, the Milan Suede Scrunch Boots. The boots come in a great range of hot and neutral shades, and they have a nice look and easy fit. My favorite little detail is the dangling heart charms on the ankle, very sweet. Inspired to take mine out dancing, I threw on the Selfish Dress from Bijou, in a monochromatic Python print. Simple black accessories like the wrist band from ETD and the Boho Leather Necklace from (luc) play an understated role next to a mane of wild curls from Analogue Dog.

Visit Rebel Hope Designs to take a look at these sweet boots!
