Ye banks and braes, or Dress #31

Dress: Sangria, NYC;
Shoes: Zigi Soho;
Jade bracelet: Finder's Keepers;
Belt: Fossil.
How I've worn the dress before: here, here.

Just playing around with different locations at the park in these photos. I love how green the hill looks at 5 pm. All of a sudden, it seems like Georgia skipped over spring and went straight to summer -- I was feeling sweaty after about five minutes outside. I actually think I look a little like a tree because of the colors in this outfit. I also blend in a bit with the tree trunk in that last photo. I really love this dress -- it was versatile in the fall and winter, and I'm probably going to experiment with different bright colors for spring.
These photos actually remind me of a song we had to sing in my high school chorus called "Ye Banks and Braes." I always thought it was a beautiful, romantic song and probably my favorite out of all of our programs. Sometimes I miss my chorus days -- I was in it for 10 years, and quit in 11th grade to take more AP classes/do the video broadcasting class. I think the show "Glee" is pretty brilliant -- I remember there were enough dramatic scenarios in my class and our setting up for shows that could fill a reality show.

I wasn't cool enough to come up with an April Fool's joke this morning, but I always think Google is pretty clever with their multiple pranks. See any good pranks today, or have you ever pulled a good one? 

signature1 by you.

  4. I love this dress! It's such a classic shape, but the pattern makes it really interesting and different. No one pulled any pranks on me today, which is lucky because a bunch of guys in my rez are having a prank war, and I definitely (with help from friends) filled up one of their rooms with newspaper last Saturday. Hahaha...

    Ce qui m'inspire.
