I wore this flirty flouncy fun frock to 2 farmers' markets...the downtown market on Saturday & the Monona market on Sunday. I've lost count of how many colors I have worn this dress in. Red is still my favorite, but this one is close. I love how these Kiyonna wrap dresses fit & I just think the ruffles are so adorable! I always feel cute in these dresses. 
Boo Bradley...I love them. They are "a hot blues stompin', jelly roll jumpin', rag jazz infusin', acoustic jug attack..." They are often out playing on the edge of our downtown Saturday Farmers' Market. 
I loved adding pops of green to this magenta dress. Also, I could not believe I had a lipstick that so closely matched this dress. It's not a color I wear a lot. 
Shoe close-up, plus tattoos...& one swollen ankle. I love the designs on these sandals...

  1. I feel like these whimsy wrap dresses were made for you! I love your lip shade. Isn't the color of the year orchid? Reminds me of that - I may have to find some. Really neat ink, what are the words? Last and most importantly, what on Earth happened to your poor ankel? It looks painful. :( Okay, I lied, what brand/shade of eyeshadow is the green color?

    1. Aw, thank Jenna. I really like them. It's funny, the only one I own...I never wear....black with white polka dots. It is quite nearly the color of the year...the only reason I bought that lipstick was that Kate & I were at a Sephora make-up class and I was wearing that Tbags maxi dress in black with lots of pretty colors, including a pinky purple. So one of the girls put it on me and I fell in love with how it went on wet, then dried...I can eat a whole meal and that lipstick stays put. The words surrounding my tattoo are the first lines from Mad Girl's Love Song by Sylvia Plath: I close my eyes & all the world drops dead; I lift my lids & all is born again. My ankle just does that in the summer. It gets better if I elevate it...but I hardly ever, ok never, do that. It's not painful though. The green eyeshadow is from Sugarpill & is called Acidberry. I love it!

  2. That dress looks gorgeous on you, and I love the contrast of the green accessories and makeup with the magenta dress!
