Thank you ALL so much! I've been away from the forum all day - first day back at job #2 and I'm physically and mentally exhausted, plus sick of the sound of my own voice.
You have no idea how happy it makes me feel to have a cute dress to fall back on for those hot days when layers will just not work. I'm appreciative of all of your comments, and wearing this dress really made my day.
I'm definitely adding this colour to my "keep in mind " list . It's not a colour I have represented anywhere in my closet - but I'll sure be on the lookout now .
