Verdant is the word for this time of year and rightly so as everything is so very green. The days are a little longer and the wind is a little warmer. I lose a little sleep this time of year. I just can't stay in bed with all the birds singing and the sun streaming through the windows. Summer is almost here.
I had a little trouble naming this week's post. Maybe because I had a little trouble with this dress. It's a little unlike my style. I don't really go for this many stripes normally, but there was something I just loved about it. So, I looked at it for weeks without knowing just how to wear it. In the end I thought it looked a little like a slice of watermelon, so I decided to run with the idea. I paired it with a pale pink beaded cardi and a grapefruit bag I made myself. I'm mixing prints with metallic snakeskin heels, but they're very neutral and I think it works well.
This little dress is by Carandy and was available at Anthropologie, though it is no longer in stock. |
And I don't usually post my make-up info, but for this I used Baby Lips by Maybelline in Peach Kiss. I have several of the Baby Lips glosses and this one is my favorite for a natural, nude lip. It's available at most drugstores.
