Hello, hello ♥
A hot, humid summer day it was with blissful thunderstorms erupting throughout. I find nature and its wishy washy-ness fascinating and ever so beautiful... I try to cherish the weather of all the different days, no matter what they may be.
Man, have I had this dress for such a long time though. I got it in the beginnings of high school one summer. My mom took a trip to Columbus one day and had stopped by the Forever21 there and bought a few items for me...she had laid them on my bed as a surprise for when I got home. I'll never forget finding this beauty on my bed and being giddy with happiness over actually owning it. I don't wear it much anymore; it kind of gets lost in my huge sea of florals section in my closet. For the humidity and heat we've had lately I thought it would be perfect for today, and wearing it again reminded me of how much I used to love it. The thing I love about clothes is the sentimental value and memories they hold. It's almost like they're like people in a sense...where they become a part of your story as the years wear on.
Don't forget to check out the new items (and still the pretty old ones!) in my online store. I have both vintage pieces I thrift, as well as, pieces from my personal closet that I grow out of or don't wear much any more. I'm getting rid of it all at the end of the summer before I leave for Italy, so please help things go to good homes! Remember, use CLEAROUT for 25% off at checkout :)
With much love, Lauren.

I think I have that same dress! It is gorgeous on you and what a pretty way of styling it. I haven't worn mine in awhile since it is kinda big and it's been awhile since I've bought it!
I hope you have a happy weekend!

These are such pretty pictures, and I love how you styled this dress. A fun casual summer outfit.
I always find myself randomly discovering new pieces in my closet also! Its always a joy to wear again. I totally get sentimental about clothes. http://theredlipchronicles.blogspot.com
I love this quote that I recently saw on a chalkboard in a cafe: "There is no such thing as bad weather. Only different kinds of good weather." Have a great day! :)
I have this same exact dress but in white (w the same floral print)...sigh takes me back to when I visited France.
