I'm love, love, loving the floral trend this spring. When I came across this charming little laundry room, I suddenly knew just what to pair with that silk skirt I snagged for $12 years ago but rarely wore because I didn't know how to dress it. I went with more traditional floral looks here and here, so for Everybody, Everywear's floral challenge, I decided an edgier look was in order. I think my edgy attempt worked. After our little photo shoot on the mountain, the Husband and I went shopping and our cashier commented that we didn't look like we were from around here. I suppose I did stick out a bit in this ranch town. These wedges put me at 6". We asked him to guess where we came from and he said, "It'd have to be California." Ha! So very far off, my friend. I love it.
Meanwhile, if you've ever thought of investing in those derrière-enhancing pads { I once had a housemate while living in FL that did...}, I suggest you try a circle skirt with a bit o' wind instead. It can even give you that perfect 1860s backside poof without the hassle of bustles, hoops, and petticoats. Quelle bonne affaire!*
P.S. The Husband's decided since he's going to be my personal photographer, he's going to direct as well. He insisted I make a fool of myself on this rock, saying in his worst French accent, "make love to zee cam-air-uh." Oh là là*...
Au revoir!

I love the stripes with it. They're the exact right size to complement the floral print.
L'accent de votre fotog - tres amusant! (Pardon ma grammaire. Je jamais practiquais. I think it shows, haha.)
Love this! Stripes and floral always work so well together.

really digging the stripes with the floral print! LOL at the rock
I love it. That is such a perfect combination!
I remember when that skirt came out at Express and I wanted it so badly, and now, I want it even more!
great outfit
Love how you paired stripes with your florals for EBEW!
My boyfriend takes all of my photos, and he, too, likes to say ridiculous things as he shoots. At least it brings out genuine smiles even if I don't follow his "direction"!
