I am not sure if I have actually featured my current favorite dress yet, so this is my Official Endorsed Bird Swirl Wrap Dress Post. I am actually not the owner of this amazing swirl wrap dress, it belongs to Solanah, who got it originally from her aunt, Amy of Team Jessup (who is featured below.) I can not even look in the general direction of most items in my closet due to my now 34" waistline, so I have been living in swirls. In this post I am wearing it on a recent trip to Astoria to stay with Team Jessup. I really do have some of the most amazing friends, and I am so thankful for each one of them!

Wrapped in Love
Yesterday when the mail arrived a special package for me was included in the pile of bills. It was my accidental SWIRL. I was browsing Etsy the other night, and came across this "Apron" that looked quite a bit like our familiar friend, the Swirl! I messaged the buyer about the apron, and sure enough, she said it came with a Swirl label inside, of course I then bought it instantly, as the price for a vintage "apron" was unbeatable!!
I think its a late 50s, early 60s Swirl based on color scheme and length. It was missing the button, but that was an easy fix. I wore it to visit the Fella for lunch at his work at the industrial yards.
It is so comfy and perfect for housework, tending to children, then heading out to the city to pick up lunch! As others have said before, I love my Swirl!
