Giveaway Status: Closed. Winner is Tarilyn Yeo and has been notified through email.
Hello, lovely people!
I was very much amused by how ladies in the olden days always had a handkerchief in their pockets or bags. My mother told me during her times, women in Shanghai would spray their silk handkerchiefs with 花露水 (a.k.a. 'Florida water') during the summer. It's a cologne of light flowery scents and often contained notes of lavender or clove. I loved the cologne when I was little because mother would use a few drops in my bathwater to refresh me.
I'm not sure how many people still use handkerchiefs nowadays. But I can't help but to appreciate just how delicate and beautiful it is as an accessory. I chose to pick a floral one to go with my Peter Pan dress. Those oversized collars are so cute and classy!
Have fun! I would LOVE to know y'all better. All comments will be read and screened by me but do give me some time if there are questions! Also, don't be disappointed if you don't get picked this time, because there will be more giveaways from Dressabelle and I in the near future.
Once again, thank you for the love. <3
{I will be giving away this Peter Pan Lace dress to one reader. See details on how to participate at the end of this post.}
