beginning over

"and so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, 
just as things grow in fast movies, i had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer."
-- f. scott fitzgerald, the great gatsby

    You totally should keep this dress. The print is gorg, but it's the cut that makes it.
