Oh, Blogger, Where Art Thou?

I've been basking in every moment of alone time I've been able to steal with my dear husband who is venturing out for a big adventure and very soon. The blog has taken on some inevitable neglect in the wake of this. Naturally.

I wore this dress recently when we attended my stepsister's wedding at a vineyard & winery {photos to follow}. It was $20 at a little vendor stand during Sidewalk Days. Her tent had no name. She was just a quiet woman with lovely, affordable dresses. Magical.

The wedding color was purple, so it was fun to have something breezy to match. I did do quite a bit of surveying about the questionable tact of wearing white to a wedding. It's a a largely outdated notion, according to my sources. So, I wore it happily. What do you all think about dress rules for wedding attendees? Is this a polarizing issue?

I got to have him with me on this pretty day.

ps: I colored my hair red{ish-goldish}.

False alarm. There was no storm. Annoying.

Goin On a Bear Hunt

Something about this vest. I can't seem to escape the safari-woodsman-outdoorsy feeling I get in it. I decided to go all in & pair it with this harvest-leaf/field-print sweater dress (that I'm wearing as a shirt layered underneath the skirt), why not, right?

Monday was...well...Monday. I utilized my new hair color, as well as the help of sunny outerwear, to counteract the bizarre weather.

I thought since my hair is reddish-orange, that a greenish-blue would be the most accurate way to compliment the 'do, at least as far as the color wheel is concerned.
