Green apple

It rained for the first time this month last week (when I took these photos), so I'm inside once again for these.  At least the exposure isn't as blown out now!  And I'm wearing my new dress from eShakti

Outfit Details:
Gingham Check Dress: eShakti
White belt: ASOS
Core Values Necklace: ModCloth
White flats: Yeswalker

eShakti is a really cool company, because they offer a lot of customization for their shoppers.  They provide detailed measurement information for all their sizes, but they also allow you to provide your own measurements, and they'll make a custom size just for you!  You can also shorten (or lengthen) the hem of a dress, or add/change the sleeves or neckline.  They have some really great designs and interesting prints, too.  They are currently offering a couple of promotions: if you're a new customer, you can get a $25 gift coupon for registering on their website, or they are also offering a "buy two dresses, get the third free" promotion, or "buy two dresses, and get the second one 40% off" deal!  Check out all of their offerings here!






Have a lovely (and hopefully non-rainy) day!

A pin-up picnic

I think spring has finally sprung (fingers crossed)!  I'm taking pictures outside as much as possible, because I'm overjoyed that it's finally warm enough (and that I can wear dresses sans tights again)!



Outfit Details:
Gretel Gingham Swing Dress: Collectif Clothing (see their other gingham items here!)
Dream of the Crop Cardigan in Oatmeal: Modcloth (no longer available, but other colors here)
Picnic Retro Suitcase: Chicwish (2 sizes available!)
Kissing Kids Necklace: ASOS (out of stock)
Peep Toe Ballet Flat: ASOS
Bike Ring: Ever Ours


I love the heart-shaped buttons on this dress!





This dress begs for a crinoline underneath, don't you think?
It's hard to see, but this ring has a man and a woman riding on a bicycle together.  It's such a sweet little piece, and a perfect complement to the kissing kids necklace!







Have a beautiful Tuesday!

Girly in gingham (an outfit post)

Although the outfit I posted on Easter Sunday was a lovely, springy dress, it's actually not what I wore on Easter!  Since we had a show that afternoon, I knew I wouldn't have time to post my actual Easter outfit in real time, but I did take pictures, because I love this dress (it's made by Nishe, duh).

Outfit Details:
Nishe Cupcake Lilac Gingham Dress: ASOS
White belt: ASOS
Kimchi Blue T-Strap Flats: Urban Outfitters


Not only is the cupcake embroidery adorable, but I also love the pink jewel buttons!



These flats are so darling.


Post-show hair!

I was soo mad at myself for forgetting to wear this bunny necklace!  It would have been perfect!

Have a sensational Sunday!
