We seem to be experiencing a second wind for Summer, or more appropriately named, an Indian Summer-no surprise for September, considering it is the return of many to school and work now!!
This is the 1970s vintage cotton summer dress I purchased in Clacton for only £3.50 and I'm pleased I got the chance to wear it before summer disappears completely!
It is gypsy shoulder styled and three tiered-I remember them first time round, when I so desperately wanted and got a three tiered skirt, with a sewn in lace petticoat at the hem!!
The lighting doesn't show the colours that well, but the pink, tan and lemon colours are quite vivid-I don't think it was worn much as its in very good condition.
My mum recalls having a similar dress back in the day too!
What will you wear during this Indian Summer?

Aw you look lovely! xo, mel
Aw, that dress looks lovely on you! The fit is just perfect. I remember those tiered dresses with the petticoat trim so well! xxx
That is such a cute dress, I never find anything in my size in dresses that I like.
Such a pretty dress and you really suit pink... I don't know, what I will be wearing as I have to wear boots everyday because of all the crap around the house... xx
Lovely! Isn't it typical. Wish I had your dress for this weather xx
Ooooh, I love this cotton dress, darling Sharon! U look so fab!
♥
Gorgeous frock, it really suits you!
Oh wow, I don't recall ever seeing you in anything so pink and floral but I like it!
Lovely dress, and a great length. The sort of dress you can really swish around in.
The dress looks very good on you!
This is such a pretty dress and looks so great on you, you could definitely wear it even in winter with a sweater underneath and tights.
I've started wearing long trousers, but am still boycotting socks ;-)
The print is so pretty, I can't believe the sun is finally out in September. I've been on Blackpool promenade today and it was like being abroad with the sun shining, it was so hot!
Sharon that's a very pretty dress and you look lovely in it! What a find, I would have grab that off the rack too!

Erm a mess of A/W clothes as I got as far as stuffing all my summer clothes away and to the point of a messy pile of A/W stuff, then BAM out comes the sun, crazy, crazy weather!
This is stellar ! It is a great look, colour and style for you. Hope the summer doesn't completely go...we are just heading into spring in Australia, so I am kind of doing the opposite to you right now. Cheers:)
You look sweet in this dress. I like the softness of it, the dropped waist, the cheerful colors...
OMG I love that dress! The print, the style, everything -- looks smashing on you! I have a huge love of '70s prints. I wish they brought them back.
The dress looks gorgeous on you! It was really warm and sunny here in Kent today, so I wore the Phase Eight stripe dress I got in the sale as I have only worn it once on holiday so its nice to get some more wear out of it.
You look beautiful....lovely dress~ Heather
Love this dress - it is so cute! I hardly ever where florals.
such a pretty dress! :)
Very pretty, that is a great color on you. I'd wear a dress like that even into fall with a jacket, scarf and some boots.
Dear Sharon, I love those dresses and it looks fantastic on you.
Thank you for your wonderful comments at mine. I'm so glad the interview came out so well. I do love her to bits.
I hope you're having a fabulous weekend, much love, C xx
Sharon, you look so sweet and so very 70s...I remember it well! Love your shoes too.
