Also known as Gertie Does Dirndl.  Second make of this.  It’s a flattering pattern.  Or at least I think so.  It was a bit of a last minute one as it is my twin brothers’ 30th birthday tomorrow (well today) and I finished it about half an hour before I started work and the parents are picking me up when I finish about 8am.  Hope to finish I should say, as I already have two in the bin to deal with and we are short staffed due to helping cover Trump’s visit. 

Hopefully a sleep in the car and I will be ready to party!

ooh pretty flamingoes!  (showing my age).  Hope you got to the party and had a great night, @Ravingdoll !  The dress is lovely.

So if it's your twin brother's birthday today... I can only presume it's also your birthday?  Happy Birthday and hope you have a good day 

Edit: - or do you have twin brothers and it's their birthday today??  Having re-read your post and noted the position of the apostrophe, I'm now assuming it's this

That dress is so adorable.  I it.   I didn't even notice the flamingos until Nevis5 mentioned it.  Even better!

I love vintage style, they are so flattering.

Have a good time at your party.

@Ravingdoll: nicely done.  What you need is a pair of these

[Ravingdoll]

Will these do @UttaRetch! Sorry no tights, and swollen feet - bloody hot here in Woking!

[UttaRetch]

Yes, indeed.  I might have to break my life long ban on sandals and get those lovely suede Rocket Originals.

Great dress and great sandals!
