HOW TO STYLE A BLUE VINTAGE DRESS FOR A WEDDING IN MEĐUGORJE?
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share what I wore to a traditional wedding in Herzegovina. Some vintage dresses are more special than others. This royal blue one falls into the category of more special ones. Not just because this long formal dress is absolutely gorgeous (more about that later) but because there's a story to it. Worn for several wedding celebrations spanning several decades, this dress has lived quite an interesting life! This long blue pleated dress was a gift from my aunt. My aunt Nena actually wore it to her wedding! This blue dress wasn't her dress, but the formal dress she changed into after reception. Back when my aunt was young, that was the norm. The brides would typically get married in one dress and change to another later. Our Croatian traditional weddings were never a reception sort of things, they are typically quite elaborate. Croatian wedding were always an all night affair (the wedding celebrations and customs somet
very nice drawings :)
