Carnival

30 July 2011












Meet my new favorite dress! I chose this white wall as the backdrop for these outfit
photos because I wanted this dress to be in the spotlight! I love the pops of color
and the vintage-inspired silhouette. There are tiny little pleats at the waist, and it
flows and blows with even the slightest breeze. Very fittingly it is called the 'carnival'
dress. Dylana pretty much guessed it without even knowing, and said it looks like
I should be holding some cotton candy! I am also in love with this necklace as well,
because it reminds me of the necklace Mia Farrow had in Rosemary's Baby. Freaky
movie, but really cool fashion. I have had a few necklaces like this before but they
have all broke. I have a feeling this one will last.

Ryan arrives later today and I absolutely cannot wait! Hopefully I can trick him
into surprise appearing on this blog again! Have a lovely weekend, lovelies.

At first I totally guessed that necklace was a vintage find! It is very similar to the one in Rosemary's Baby.

And this dress is going to haunt my dreams! I've seen so many bloggers wearing it too. What a great summer dress!

Hi there.
Thanks for your comment on my blog.
You are very good in finding beautiful and cool outfits, I must say!
And I love this funny little necklace. Have you considered putting something inside it? :-)

And then I have to tell you that it suits you so well with wearing red lipstick on your lips! It looks amazing against your beautiful black hair.

Greetings from FarfallaDK
