i was sort of intrigued by this dress when i first saw it hanging in anthropologie. i really liked it but worried that all of the fabric would overwhelm me. when i saw it on kjrsten at {have a cute day} i immediately kicked myself for not getting it. when it went on sale i couldn't find it online and i thought i missed out. of course when i stopped in the local store they had two left!!
details:
dress/floral pin~anthropologie
belt~f21
shoes~steve madden
the dress came with a sash but i think the belt gives my waist a little more definition. i added the black floral pin at the last minute. you can see from it's various locations from picture to picture i wasn't really sure where to put it. i ended up leaving it clipped to my belt. the heat is down right oppressive but the dress is made from such light weight, soft cotton that i'm staying fairly cool.
we are bringing my dad home today. thank you so much for all of your thoughts and prayers. they have him on medication, he will work with a physical therapist to get back some of the strength on his left side, and follow up with his doctor at the end of the week. we are all exhausted but so happy to have him back at home.

When I saw that dress at the stores, I thought, "Who in the world could ever make that dress look good?" And the answer was you. I love the black pin you put on it to make it pop.

You look gorgeous in it! I was like Cindi, thinking who could actually wear it and pull it off? But you definitely do so in great style!

Like the others, I also thought this dress would look awwwwful in real life. But you and Kjrsten totally give it just the right boho-hippie-cool vibe, and it looks awesome on you!
