You guys, you are making me blush!! Thanks so much everyone!
Staysfit - The elastic insets are indeed blue (depending on the light they can look sky blue or more grayish blue, but definitely a fantastic detail). I was actually wondering about the same thing. I went looking for the booties and loafers online because I wanted to add them to my Finds, but couldn’t find them anywhere. Maybe they were from past seasons? So not sure you’d still be able to find them-(
Shannon - You make me smile
Beth Ann - Ooh, now I want a garden to have tea in
Sara L., Aida, and Smittie - I will wear it as a dress on its own when it’s very warm. (It looks fun with loafers, for example, to Aida's point), but it’s not my most flattering look, with the dress being quite short. So not sure I want to post a picture of that on the interwebs
Lisa - Hah! It’s so annoying, isn’t it!
Angie - *smile*, and I like that you think it has a Scandinavian vibe. Thank you. LOTS of fantastic memories from our Amsterdap trip linked to this fun frock for sure. And high five, I actually did sport my Van Gogh bag with this outfit.
Joy - Wow, thank you!
Cloud9 - I do love the look, and hope you give it a try too.
Bonnie G - Holding thumbs you’ll find a good dress soon. Can’t wait to see your version.
Irina - So strange that COS isn’t present in Canada. Soon hopefully!
AJ - *nodding* Awesome memories, which make me smile each time I sport these shoes.
Aida - I had a hunch the colour palette would appeal to you;-) And yes! The blue shining through the perforations really helped seal the deal too.
Karie - High five, that’s what drew me to this dress too.
Lisap - LOL:-)) I spilled my tea reading your comment.
Sveta - Way too long indeed!-( And yep, I did sport the Van Gogh bag with this outfit for dinner. The colours go so well together.
Una - Ah, that’s a shame. Hopefully they’ll get something similar in in a shorter length for you soon.
Sharan - I know, I couldn’t believe my luck either (I think I need to go on walks with Angie and Greg more often, they obviously bring excellent shopping luck!-) I am definitely keeping my eye on AGL from now on, and will shout if I see something interesting at a good price.
Shevia, Ryce, Word Lily, Diane, Celia, Jules, Style Fan, Winchime, Aliona, torontogirl, Adelfa, and Lyn, thank you all so much for the sweet comments.
