  10. Very cute outfit! The dress is a little on the short side, but it looks really good.

    To answer your question, I don't know that I go into a meditative state when I sew - if I have large quantities of fabric and long seams it may happen, but with the resizing and refashioning I've been doing lately it's just small steps and then something else again. It is relaxing, though, and takes my mind off things that may be bothering me.

  11. Oh the shoes....! So lovely! And the floral pattern is so my style! You're a beauty! And you don't stop to amaze me with your kindness every day... (and kindness is a virtue that speaks to my heart and I don't ever take it for granted.) Kisses

  14. Wonderful spring mix of heady florals and classic polka dots- I wished we wore the same size of shoe, so I could borrow your adorable espradrilles.

  18. Thanks, Tracy. Yes, I tried a new approach to my eyes and spent more time than usual playing around with ideas. My eyelids are an odd shape and I've always been confused about how to do them.

  19. Loving this ensemble!! From the shoes I need to go buy before they sell out to the pretty sunny dress! I'd wear this from head to toe!! Springtime outfit cuteness!

  20. This outfit makes it feel like it's 80 degrees out - but that also might have to do with your big bright smile!

  21. This post gave me a big old grin! Just fun and flirty- perfect!

    The pattern-mixing is great, not overdone or disjointed like many attempts I see. And the cut of that dress is divine on you... gives the illusion of curves.

    And the print is so fun! I'm so jealous
