Song to a seagull

Outfit Details:
Seagull dress: ASOS
White flats: yeswalker
Bracelet: old




This is another one of those dresses that has been hanging in my closet for a while without having been worn.  Weirdly, I bought this dress at a much lower sale price at ASOS a while back, and now it's still on sale, but for much more.  The seagulls remind me of children's storybook illustrations.  And I love that some of them have hats on!  I also just really like the silhouette of the dress, and the fit (in a size smaller than I normally wear, no less) is great.




This was also one of those times where there wasn't enough light, and a lot of my photos came out way blurrier than I'd originally thought.  The ones I chose here were the only usable ones, really.  It looked like it was going to rain, but luckily, the sun came out and we were able to sit outside at one of our favorite restaurants for dinner.  Afterwards, we got froyo and walked along the canal... and happened to see two of the cutest little ducklings amongst all the grown-up lady ducks!





All in all, it was a very bird-filled day.

  2. You are the duck summoner, ruler of all ducks. And hopefully soon Ireland, yeah? ;)

    Heheee, this print is so cute, Sammi! It definitely is reminiscent of a child's storybook. I love that you added that nice red belt, too, for a pop of color!

  3. It sure was a birdy day for you! I live next to a park and there are ALWAYS baby ducks. There are multiple families of baby ducks at all times. Some of the families have more than 20 babies! I cannot believe the amount of ducks generated at this park. Anyway, your dress is great :)
