Lar: White and Plywood

I love the way this dress zips up the front, but keeps it soft with eyelet ruffles at the bottom (three tiers of ruffles, Tracy Feith, well done!). The shoes are from last summer. I waited in line at the South DeKalb Mall DMV to  get my Georgia license for three hours and figured I "deserved" some new shoes for the wait. I got these at Rainbow for $19.99. They lace up the front and are very comfortable to dance in.

Hope you all are having a lazy delicious Sunday. I plan to eat breakfast, read, eat lunch, read, read and read and read and eat and read. Maybe drink some sweet tea. It's an ambitious plan, but I think I'm up for the challenge.

Wood adds so much warmth to everything!

I have a pretty similar Sunday plan... but more writing than reading! Good luck with your Sunday challenge :)

From now on you should go to the DMV by Turner Field. You'll wait less than 15 minutes usually.

Three words: GOR-GE-OUS

And that's great that you read his poems in Spanish. It's always better to read poems in their native language (when possible).

Enjoy your Sunday! xo

I love everything about this outfit! I can't believe that dress is by Tracy Feith. Is it the Target line? Anyway, great look!

Oh wow, I love that dress on you! The ruffles and the zip detail make it girly with an edge. Great shoes as well!

By the way, terrific choice on the rug. I'm a huge fan of retro-inspired prints when it comes to decor. I once almost got a wallpaper like that, but my friend talked me out of it for some reason. Can't wait to see pics of your apartment!

Definitely a beautiful combo. The natural light's really working with the pretty white dress. =D

Looks like the "real world" isn't treating so bad after all.

Love this airy white dress! And those nude sandals - 19.99??? I got a similar pair from Zara on sale for 39.99 and I thought that was a good deal!

Hope you and Cath had a fab weekend :)

Oh and the rug - looks super cute against the toesies, LOL.

I hear you on being short, but I do rather love those shoes. I almost want to buy a pair at our nearest Rainbow Store...
