Just fooling around in the snow. My second BurdaStyle piece, Celestina without arms. Unfortunately, it turned out a bit boxy. But I still like it. :)
Cotton/Lycra I think. Bought on second hand, possibly once before a table cloth. Knew it was a dress immediately.

That’s such a great dress! And I’m so jealous – it’s summer where I live and it never snows in winter!!! The snow just looks so beautiful :)

Thanks for commenting everyone!
Yes, it was quite cold. I wore mittens and a scarf during the next set of photos we took. Didn’t look good, though. And it sure wasn’t that much warmer. :D
