robert sometimes gives me a hard time saying i always look unhappy in blog photographs.
i promise, i am not. i just sometimes feel like a huge cheeseball smiling in photos.
but when wearing yellow, it's hard not to smile.
So adorable! I love the pretty print on your vintage dress, a perfect marigold for fall! Cute sandals too!

I've never noticed you looking unhappy! Maybe it's because I find you so visually striking. Speaking of, you look phenomenal here. I love the cheery yellow and you do have a smile that could melt ice.
