Dollar store dress

I can't believe I found this dress in a dollar store on Danforth Ave. in Toronto.

It's 100 percent tie-dyed rayon, made in Thailand, and $25 to boot.

I love dresses like this; I'm a former dancer and the cut is very 'dance-y' and flattering for a body type like mine.

It's so easy peasy breezy for this grotesquely hot and humid weather we've been having; all I have to do is steam it, throw it over my head and voila!

Thanks to pal Chris for snapping this shot of me.

  1. Hi!
    Just stumbled upon your blog - loved it! I recently cleaned my wardrobe of all clothes I haven't used in a while, and got a large bag full of nice clothes that just don't fit me anymore. I was wondering if you know of any clothing swap in Toronto which I could take them to?

  2. Hi! So glad you found me and thank you for reading! Funny you should say that, I recently joined a site known as SwapSity (www.swapsity.ca) and they are currently polling members about having a Toronto sale and swap meet. There is a survey you can go to to add your two cents; not sure if it is still open but I received the link only on August 3. Check out: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/H6DQCX8

    and let me know!

    Best,
    Kelly

  3. Love that dress also and it looks perfect on you.
    You scored another great find.
    I can see you dancing the night away on a beautiful beach or better yet a cruise ship.
    I sooo much love Tie-dyed and rayon does dry so fast without iron if you do it right.

  4. Thanks The Witch, I am thinking I could wear it if I ever go back to West Palm Beach where I vacationed recently - or somewhere else tropical!
