A Summer Dress in Winter

Photobucket


The weather has smartened up!! It went from -23 yesterday to -7 today! It's absolutley wonderful, I think I may venture out for a walk even. It's going to be a lovely week which makes me happy. I start work next tuesday and have to start getting more walking in to prepare me. I went to the mall yesterday and walked around (& shopped of course). Trying on tops really hurt my arm, but I was very careful and found some very cute items. I'm feeling a lot better than last week, because I have been able to get out much more often.

This is the other dress Bryce's mom bought for me in Hawaii, it's really very summery. Its got a feminine small floral print, ruffles on the bottom is very lightweight. It's got a dropped waist and I love the way it fits. It's going to be the perfect summer dress, throw on a fedora and hang out outside. I really wanted to wear it now though, so I pulled on my very soft sweater and belted it. It's a wee bit short, but it's such a great dress. This look feels a little bit preppy but feminine and different from what I usually wear. I love this outfit actually! I like the way brown, black and purple look together, especially here.
I'm going to go for a walk then I'll check out everyones blog :)
