That is such a beautiful dress - what a lovely idea!
ReplyDeleteSo envious of your hat! The dress is beautiful, looks very "priarie". (:
ReplyDeleteI love the dress! The cut and shape of it looks great on you. I especially like it with the floppy hat. I always have a hard time deciding if a hat looks good with an outfit, but there's no question with this outfit!
ReplyDeleteRed definitely suits your dark hair. You could easily channel Snow White!
