Spring + Easter Outfit Idea
Dress c/o* | Heels c/o* (Similar here) | Necklace (Similar here) | Bunny Ears | Carrot
An upcoming holiday is a perfect excuse to break out a cute dress and a costume for Bosco! Haha. Bosco is my mom’s pooch and a reoccurring model of mine for holidays. (See my favorite post with Bosco here.) Needless to say, he doesn’t love being dressed in little costumes, but he does get lots of treats… so, he’s more than willing to tolerate if for a few minutes! (And there are blooper photos of Bosco being a goofball at the end of the post.)
This post had started because my mom wanted a photo for her Easter invites this year. One thing led to another, and before we knew it Bosco was a bunny and my friends at Unique Vintage had sent the perfect dress for me to match him! You can never go wrong with a pastel dress for Easter or spring! Now, before I get into my thoughts on this dress I want to point out that if pink is not your color, this dress comes in roughly 100 different colors and prints! Haha. And some of them are on sale right now! (Click here to check out the other options.)
My Thoughts on the Unique Vintage 1950s Delores Swing Dress with Sleeves
The Fit
This dress is true to size and fits like a glove! I’m typically a size medium and that was what I ordered in this dress. The fabric is stretchy and soft, which is makes it very comfortable as well.
The Neckline
This is my only negative about this dress. It fits a bit strange through the neckline on me. If I don’t pin or tape it, this dress would not be Easter appropriate (for me at least), and I’d be risking a bit of a wardrobe malfunction.
The Zipper
The more dresses I add to my closet the more I appreciate a well-constructed zipper that’s easy to zip and looks nice! This one is well-concealed and works just fine.
The Quality
This dress gets an A+ rating for quality all around! It’s well-constructed and has a lovely shape to it.
The Length
I’m obsessed with midi-length dresses, so this hits at just the right length for me. I’m 5 feet 5 inches without my killer heels on. And I mean killer heels literally! These babies murder my feet when I where them! Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), they’re no longer available. But I’ve linked to some similar ones (with much better reviews!), below!
Does anyone else dress their pets up for holidays? Haha. And who else is getting ready for Easter or spring in general? Let me know in the comments!

Thank you!
I love this look, as it’s just my style. I would wear this exact look, complete with the pink lipstick and pearls! I am all about a pastel dress for Easter, and those bow-topped heels are divine! Too bad they’re murderous, but sometimes I will tolerate that if the occasion mostly calls for sitting! lol Bosco looks adorable with his bunny ears and carrot, and that reminds me that I need to get some things for Georgie’s Easter basket! I think she would also tolerate a costume if cookies were involved. When we adopted her, her chart literally said, ‘very food motivated.’ And there is no truer truth in all the universe.

It’s so cute that you included Bosco with your outfit. Lindsey!!
I have that issue with some of my dresses in the front, and I’ve actually gone ahead and sewed them up so I don’t have to pin them or worry about a cami underneath!!
What a perfect color for the spring!!

Aw, thank you, Jodie! (Bosco says thank you too!) And that is a good idea – I have access to my mom’s sewing machine right now. I should just sew it up! Thank you!
