{dip-dyed perfection}

Jenn — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 04:53:13 +0000

It’s hard not to breathe a little deeper, a little slower, when looking upon an exquisite sky that looks as if it’s been dip dyed in an ocean of dusty peaches and wisteria. This dress appears to have been dyed in the same ocean, because it perfectly reflects the ocean and sky in Moore’s lovely photograph.

There are no words for the cuteness…

In other news, somewhere in NY, a fashionista is buying a striped cardigan, a tulle skirt, legwarmers, and black ballet flats.

{for the love of cotton & silk}

Jenn — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 05:50:13 +0000

The weather is still cool out, which is perfect for a blanket and book on the beach. Despite having been born Floridian, I prefer to spend a breezy, not too hot day at the beach in a silk dress or cotton tunic. Setting aside my hatred for the heat, I must admit that the benefit to living in South Florida {and not having a dress code for work} is that I can indulge in my romantic, beachy, piscean style.

Maybe it’s because of where I was born that I have little willpower to resist anything of gauzy cotton or washed silk, especially in pleats or ruched. Anything in white, cream, or pale rose easily wins my heart. So, when presented with a combination of these, I simply swoon.

{bit of beauty: cotton candy colors}

I’ve been dreaming in soft candy colors at the circus and desperately seeking these beautiful balloons. I’m a jewel-tone girl, but the cotton candy shades in the above photos, as well as in this editorial, have me dreaming of spring style.

{rockin’ the hairbow}

Jenn — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 09:24:19 +0000

Inspired by the tutorial over here, I decided to try the hairbow for myself. The trick is to make the loops tighter than you think they need to be. I’m experimenting with how to wear it, but I think it suits this bow dress pretty well.

So would you wear a hairbow? If yes, then how would you work it?
