This dress.  Oh my goodness gracious.  The lovely Dus from Cuddly Cacti had this vintage dress up for swaps on Flock Together (have I mentioned how happy I am to be a part of this blog?), and I immediately asked her if I could borrow it.  I fell even more in love with it once I received it in the mail, because of the details I hadn't noticed before -- like the hidden thin layer of tulle under the skirt, and the beautiful way that the shoulders are constructed.  I never wanted to take this dress off!  It was warm enough to go without a jacket when I took these, so I was once again in a springy mood.  Too bad the weather is probably going to be decidedly wintery from here on in.  You can check out how Dus styled this little number on her own blog here!  

Have a great Monday!

Bow by bow (Flock Together)

Hi, guys!  I'm blogging over at Flock Together today, and it's my very first outfit swap post!  I'm wearing an adorable dress from the lovely Elana of Room 334 -- and lucky me, she asked me if I wanted to just keep this dress, since she wasn't getting use out of it!  So now this cute little number is hanging in my own closet (though I'd still gladly send it out for swaps!).  I'd love it if you'd check out my post and see how I styled it!  :)

Have a great Monday!

Outfit Details:

Fire hydrant print dress: borrowed from Marisa

The Dream of the Crop Cardigan in Mint: ModCloth (similar here)

Red belt: Pinup Girl Clothing

White flats: Yeswalker (on sale!)

Daisy ring: Mom's

I'm so happy I was asked to be a part of the Flock Together style collective!  The girls who are make up this blog are truly some of the sweetest, loveliest individuals, and I feel very lucky and honored to be in their company.  This awesome fire hydrant print dress was one of the first pieces I borrowed, and it's from the lovely Marissa of The Shades of Monet Chronicles.  I really love Marisa's sense of style, and she has such a great eye for color.  She is able to remix pieces in ways I never would have thought of myself, but are so playful and work so well together.  I remember seeing this dress on ModCloth during one of their large sales, and I distinctly remember almost ordering it, but going with another dress instead.  I'm so glad that I got the chance to wear Marisa's, especially since Retrolicious is such a fun brand.  I especially love the pockets, and I'm a total sucker for an oversized collar.  Check out how Marisa styled this adorable dress on her own blog here!

Have a lovely Monday!
