This dress makes me want to hang out in a wood paneled basement and listen to Nancy Sinatra records. I totally remember this style of fabric (where everything was this color scheme and had a vaguely nature-ish pattern on it that made it look like an abstract field of wheat or leaves?). My parents had sheets like this when I was little (with matching LION HEAD pillowcases.) Anyway, the dress will be in the shop soon because I can't justify keeping it. But I also couldn't justify selling it without wearing it once first. Because I am selfish.

So it's been above freezing here for a few days and a ton of the snow is melting! Which is awesome (until I get gutter-splashed by the bus, which I have somehow managed to avoid thus far.) I am so ready for spring... my mind is entirely focused on one thing, err, two things:
Oh yes, biking to work and around the lakes. I am trying to be realistic about it though. This is Minnesota. It WILL snow again. Probably several times. But this thaw is the small ray of hope I needed to get me through the rest of February.

I like the dress. The basement of my house is wood paneled, and painted yellow. Very Minnesota, and very 70s.
Whenever you wear something on the blog I'm tempted to buy it until I remember you are a petite lil thing. And I? Am not! This looks great on you!
I love the shoes!
You should definitely keep this - it is so perfect on you!
And this weather? With the 50 degrees tomorrow? Is so freaking awesome, I can't stand it.
LION HEAD PILLOWCASES? I want.

Those shoes are awesome!
And yes, it is so tempting to dream the spring might actually be HERE! I don't know if I can handle more snow.
Fab shoes! Growing up we had lion head blankets! (and one that looked like a leopard pelt)
Let's not tell Minnesota and let's keep this weather! I LOVE IT!
