Jumping back in with belated thanks!
Aida -- Yes, "soft high contrast" is a great descriptor. Glad you liked the linen dress/tube skirt (I added one more of the dress with baby bootcuts and pink booties since we got cool again).
And technically I know you must feel my pain re curls but your hair always looks so well-behaved I don't believe it, ha! We've had cool wet, very hot dry, warm humid, and about 10 other variations this week....
Beth Ann -- HI -- have missed seeing you around! I'm not sure I can live up to your vision of me bossing my clothes around but I do try, so thank you! We have so much overlap in our color palettes and tastes I look forward to (hopefully!) seeing what you get up to this summer with combos and trends.
CJH -- I'm not much for white and generally avoid pales in big chunks so this has taken a bit of getting used to, so thank you for thinking I've pulled it off! I'm feeling much more ready for when those baking temps come and STAY.
