Honey Rose

29 March 2011














I got lucky today and was able to sneak in these photos during the
only time of the day that it was not raining. As much as I love the
sunshine, a gloomy rainy day is just perfect sometimes. I have
kept a cup of coffee/tea handy all day, and have just been listening
to some calming tunes. Perfect day for catching up on school work.

I received this dress from Romwe, and I am so obsessed with it. It is
fit for a tea party or possible a little china doll and makes me want
to frolic. Qualities a gal like me always looks for in a dress.
Anyways, I hope everyone is having a fantastic Monday! I cannot
believe it is in the last one of March. Oh how time flies.

PS- What do you all think about my hair pinned back like this?
I have had bangs in my face for years, so it feels so odd with
my entire face so... visible haha. Not sure what I think yet,
but I just needed a change!

You, your hair and your dress are all gorgeous! I love pretty floral dresses, they are so perfect for spring! I can't believe March has flown by so fast, summer will be here so soon!

Gorgeous Clara said...

you always have the sweetest dresses

Holly said...

you look so stunning! what a beautiful necklace too :)

Meg! said...

Firstly, that dress is so lovely! And your hair looks great, I always feel weird with my bangs clipped to the side as well but you look fabulous.

So I'm looking into buying a bag similar to the one you've got in this post, do you find that it's a good size for your day-to-day needs, or is it more like a briefcase or school bag? I'm have a nervous breakdown over what size of bag to get. Part of me wants a huge one like that for my laptop and books and everything, but part of me thinks it's impractical and it'll get too heavy to carry around. What's your experience with big satchels? Help meeee.

Unknown said...

You look darling! Your hair looks cute both ways, and I love that dress. The collar reminds me of a dress I just found thrifting! I enjoy rainy days too, but it's still snowing a bit here and there...
