I wore this fancy frock to Kate's birthday brunch at our house. Disclaimer: these photos were taken the day before. I nearly always take pictures during the time I am actually wearing the dress, but I hadn't planned on wearing this except for photos. I was intending to send it back because in the privacy of my own home was the only place I could wear this dress...it was way too short & awkward fitting. The top was extremely tight (especially the arms) & the bottom was bigger & puffed out...making me look like a cupcake. But the green was incredibly gorgeous...so it made a brunch appearance. 
This bottle was originally in the shot, but I kicked it out of the way...then kicked it back in because I thought it made a good prop. I am just down the street from Kate's house here...perhaps it's one of her bottles?
Vegetarian brunch...with bubbles! No people pictures because every one I snapped had people making unattractive chewing faces because the food was soooooo yummy. 
Pretty birthday girlie in the snow...wearing a party dress that matches one of the bras she bought the day before. 
Elegant Doc Martens...a present from Super Boo years ago that were recently excavated in my closet clean-out. 
 I love green & orange together.

  1. It's a shame the dress fitted so poorly, but that colour is so great on you!

  3. I found your review on the Gwynnie Bee site. I think the dress is super cute on you. I can see how the arms would be tight.
