Lauren conrad's vintage dress!

So i Finally managed to pick up Lauren conrad's book, style last month at the airport (about time too!) and I read the whole thing on the plane on the way to lanzarote and I love it! It has amazing fashion and make up tips and the photos are gorgeous. In her first-ever style guide, Lauren offers tips on how to create your own unique look, shares her favorite sources of inspiration, and identifies the absolute must-haves for any fashionista’s wardrobe. Along the way, she examines her fashion evolution, from California-casual teen to camera-ready style icon and clothing designer.


In one section of the book she talks about vintage finds she has picked up and how to make vintage clothes more updated and suited to your own style. She shows a beautiful vintage dress from gorgeous fabric with ruffles - but the shape was really outdated, so lauren conrad being the amazing fashion designer she is completely transformed it into a strapless mini dress that i am in love with! - pictured on the right above ^ . 


 Of course this being vintage and with lauren's personal touch is a one of a kind... but ladies I happened to came across an amazing dupe alternative of this dress on boohoo.com for only €14.00!!! I was nearly convinced it was the same dress, although the ruffles are replaced with feathers which still look amazing! - pictured on the right. This is a complete fashion steal! Love it :D The link to buy this dress is - http://www.boohoo.com/europe/sale/icat/clearance/evening-dresses/keeley-black-feather-dress/invt/azz66958 . Who knows, maybe you could convince everyone it's a vintage one of a kind ;)
