    I took these outfit photos a few weeks back while my sisters and I were staying at the Madonna Inn.   Since I’ve only worn this dress a few times because I don’t usually attend events that require a formal dress code, I figured that our fancy room would be the perfect place to photograph it.

    What I like most about this dress is the beautiful sequins on the sweetheart neckline and the tulle at the bottom of the skirt, details which you can’t fully appreciate in these photos.This dress has a very special place in my heart because my mom made it for me about eight years ago so that I could wear it to prom. I didn’t want to wear the same dress as any other girl and I also wanted something that was vintage-inspired; because most dresses that fit this description were outside of my budget at the time, my mom got to work and created this dress for me. It means so much that she went out of her way and put in all this effort to make me feel like a princess for the night.

    Do you have any items in your wardrobe that have a special meaning to you?
