My Perfect Dress

You’ve already seen me in this dress because I wore it throughout our holiday trip to Dornumersiel and the beautiful green island of Spiekeroog.

Yet, I wish to specifically introduce it to you because I truly feel that this dress is just perfect. Officially, it’s a “SHEIN VCAY Vintage Holiday Print Lantern Sleeve Dress With Empire Waist”.

Its design certainly allows for the dress be worn not only for normal occasions but also for visits of medieval markets which are very popular in Germany.
