1918 Vintage is Sexy

Vintage. Vintage. Vintage. Everyone talks about how they love to vintage shop or about their favorite vintage finds. I, on the other hand suck at vintage shopping. I never know where to look, and even when I actually make it to a vintage shop my mom’s voice is in the back of my head, “Chelsea, this has been worn by someone else!” Sometimes, that doesn’t stop me but most of the time it does. Oddly enough, I have this innate ability to block out what anyone else thinks when shopping online, that’s why I’m seriously contemplating buying this extra cute dress from 1918 Vintage.
It’s called the ‘Sex Appeal Dress’. It has 3/4 length sleeves which would be perfect for fall, and the diaphanous fabric really fits with the boudoir trend that has been popping up all over.
The only thing that’s actually keeping me from shelling out is that the dress is completely shear, and I don’t have anything to put under it. I don’t really have a problem with showing my bra, but I want a cute petticoat that I could wear so my undies aren’t so visible. Honestly, I’d even settle for a cute vintage slip to pair underneath it. The petticoat is something I’d wear by itself, and I know I could potentially wear the slip with a cute cardigan and some mary janes or oxfords, but I’m not sure if I would.
So I put it to you. Should I buy this dress, and if I do, should I get a petticoat or a slip and in which color? Whew! That’s a lot of questions!
