I wore this dress to work & out to lunch (Indian buffet, yum!) with Super Boo. I was prepared to be not too keen on this dress due to the smaller pattern on top/larger on bottom...that look never works for me...until now. I felt sexy & confident in this dress, so it is now part of my permanent closet. The vibrant red & the wallpaper print are divine...the fabric was soft & silky. And I wish all faux wrap necklines stayed in place as well as this one. 

We were forced inside on this below 0 day & decided to visit the Edgewood College campus near our office to find a place to snap photos...we discovered this lovely round prayer/study room full of windows that neither of us had seen before despite having spent 2 years here for grad school. 

 Hey, let's use a book for a prop!
