My pictures were a little lamesville today, so I decided to spice them up a bit.  I love how bold everything looks now!

I was lucky enough to receive this lovely little dress from Talbots, and I can tell you right now ... hold on tight, 'cuz you're going to be seeing a lot of this baby in the coming months.  I already have about 5 or 6 outfits in mind for it.  Bring on the sunshine!

  6. You are killing it this week.

    First i was swooning over that long jersey skirt that your boy said was a 'whole lotta look' and now this.

    I have a cherry tattoo and sadly, THREE cherry dresses, cherry shoes, shirts... i don't know how this happened. But i love your jacket. And I would never think of throwing it over stripes.
