Happy International Women's Day

The Cecelia Dress in Navy from KarinaDresses.com with pockets
Happy International Women's Day!  As promised I'm featuring this gorgeous Cecelia Dress in Navy as part of KarinaDresses new How Does Your Garden Grow Collection.
International Women's Day means different things to different people, but for me it is all about honoring and celebrating women of the past, present, and future.  Women have made so many important contributions to our world that I'm so glad we take this day to honor them.  
KarinaDresses is a small company in the US that is owned and operated by women.  Talk about a rare gem and definitely something worth talking about on Women's Day!
I have always enjoyed my collaborations with Karina because they really seem to care, not mention that they really know how to make a girl look good.
Karina's newest spring collection has just released and it is aptly titled How Does Your Garden Grow because it is filled with whimsical floral prints.  But, it also has plenty of Karina Classics like this Cecelia dress in Navy.
This is my first time to wear the Cecelia dress and I adore it.  Just look at those lines!  The Cecelia dress has such a classic cut.  Great features about this dress include: a fitted waist, V neck, short sleeves, a full skirt and of course, Pockets!
As far as styling this dress, it was a piece of cake.  This dress is doing all the work, so I kept the rest very simple with a pearl necklace and earrings and matching navy T strap heels.  For makeup I just did a very basic face with bright red lipstick.
Today was a brilliant day for photos.  I really look forward to this time of year.  More often than not the mornings are overcast but warm which saves me from the cold and a race against the sun. 
And since it was so lovely, I guess everyone decided to sleep in so there was not a single soul around but me.
My only real regret is that for all my searching I could not find a single flowery location to shoot these photos.  There are just a few sprigs of green here and there and the first signs of spring, so I had to settle for a cityscape and these lovely old buildings. 
Maybe when the flowers finally do make their appearance here, I'll go out and take some photos in this lovely dress.  A Navy dress like this would look stunning set against the daffodils, don't you think?
