Summer Ahoy!: ootd

    An oldie but a goodie, this red and white striped dress by Manoush always says summer to me.  And while it's technically a little early to call it summer, these hot, humid days make it difficult to keep calling it spring.  Today we decided to take my husband to our favorite roller slide for an afternoon of grueling uphill hikes followed by exhilarating descents at break-neck speed all in the name of good fun. 
    My favorite thing about this dress is the quirky little cartoon print running along the white stripes.  My not so favorite thing about it is the wide open back and the very short skirt.  By itself, this dress is not exactly day-at-the-park material, but with a white camisole and some navy blue capri pants, I'm totally ready to hike those hills and race down that slide.  
    I also promised my youngest that I would wear the anchor earrings she bought me for Mother's Day at every possible opportunity.  I love her so and she knows my style so well.  I think they go just perfectly with this outfit.
