Longer hair is a thumbs up from me as well!

Renovations... and so it goes.

That dress! I love everything about this look, the shoes are perfection.

Thanks, everyone!

Janet, go Team Breezy Summer Dress! And thanks for the remodel commiseration. Oy vey.....

April, appreciate the hair affection!

Helena and Bijou, lovely to see you chime in, and thanks for the kind compliments

GORGEOUS, Angie!! So striking and pretty! You look amazing.

Dutch orange for the win!!!!

So sorry about the remodel. UGH.

Love a breezy dress and you wear that one to perfection. Reminds me of 60s op-art and Furla’s have great staying power.

Hang in there with the seemingly endless reno. You somehow manage to look as put together as ever! We start a significant home project in a couple of weeks and as I pack, I find myself picturing only the end result, skipping right over the chaos and inevitable missteps. I expect the ability to delude myself will be short-lived.

Emily, Sarah and Eliza, how nice to see you chime in! I'm smiling at your sweet compliments

Eliza, good luck with your home renovation project! Hang on to the delusion

I do love it when you post your joyful outfits! Always unique and beautiful, and this is another one that spreads happiness like no one's business! Also, your hair looks divine.

Angie, excellent memory! I'm in NC now and enjoying the longer summer's and having many more warm days. For orders, I've noticed that items that were canceled, if I place a new order, for some reason those are going through, this may be something for others to try if they are struggling with cancelations as well. Now I just need some pieces to get here. The only thing that arrived so far, is socks!

Super-cute! I love that dress, and the shoes are perfect!

Bummer about the renovation. I hope things pick up!

That is a great iteration of unstructured dress. I think it is your choice of bold abstract print, which translates better than a ditsy print or solid. More avant- garde or something.

Love everything about this outfit. The bold colors. The shoes!!
You look put together and beautiful as always!

Thanks so much!

ChristelJ, that's high praise, and I'm blushing - WOW

Lisa! From NJ to NC is quite the change! Glad it's working out. Thanks for the re-ordering tip, and happy belated birthday! I think you're a few days after me

Mary Beth and Debbie, thanks for the awfully kind words! You're both so lovely

unfrumped, the bold graphic pattern in my colours is what drew me in right away!

That dress really had your name on it, didn’t it? And the gold shoes bookend your hair so beautifully.

JAileen, it did! I have the blue version too

Thanks for the kind compliments.

Very chic! I love the print of the dress and it looks good on you without the belt.

Thanks, JP! Lovely to see you back on the forum

Oh fun outfit! I'm glad all of these have worked out for you, Angie! So bold and bright! Love it!

I've tried many ballet flats and Mary Jane's this spring and summer and none are working out for me as I have a bunion on the side of one of my feet. "It's not me, it's the shoe!" They look so cute on you!

Thanks, Blue Jay!

It's always the shoe - not your foot! If it's soft leather, you can have the area around the bunion stretched for comfort. Planting the seed

Gorgeous dress and beautiful accessorizing! You look equally smashing in bold prints and quieter solids! Renovations extended to the end of the year is a bitter pill to swallow :(.

Jonesy! Wooohooo! Queen Pattern! I knew you'd like the dress And am smiling at your compliments. Thank you! Not smiling at our remodel delay...

Would you believe I'm wearing more solids lately, and sometimes I don't even wear a print at all in an outfit? It's crazy! I think with all of the chaos of life, solids feel soothing :).

I get that, Jonesy! Listen to your feelings and follow your dressing mood

I'm wearing patterns for you in Summer!

Re the longer hair, watch it doesn't get away on you !
