My mom gave me some of her old wrap skirts, and they’re perfect for summer – I love them with a simple tee and bare feet!

I don’t know if this is my favorite, or if it counts, but this summer/late May two of my friends and I decided to make dresses together. We go swing dancing every Tuesday (I love it so much!) and we wanted to make matching dresses to wear. In our eyes polka dots are oh so “swingy” as we put it. We all got polka dotted fabrics, mine was black with white dots. Making them was a bit difficult at times, but once we were finished I was so happy! I ended up with a sweet little halter top dress with a skirt that twirled and spun. It was wonderful. I have a notion to wear red with it… maybe a red belt, or a red headband… we’ll have to see

I remember my first scooter skirt. (From the 70’s! You girls today call them skorts I think?) I was walking down the two lane track home. You know the kind where the wheel tracks are low with a grassy ridge running down the center? I decided to walk straddling a puddle that was in the low tire area and you know it! I sat down right in the middle with my new scooter skirt on. Ugh! Funny now though.

A few years ago, when I was living in London for a summer internship, I met up with one of my friends for a fun day of shopping. I wore a pretty vintage plaid sundress – one of my very favourite dresses I have ever owned – and felt quite fresh prancing about in it. That is, until he decided that it would be a fabulous idea to go to the Notting Hill Carnival! Next thing I knew, I was squeezing through more people than I’d ever seen in my life, experiencing one of the most unique cultural gatherings in London. (this was a mere few weeks after the London bombings as well, so the vibe was very resilient) I was sure my pretty, crisp little dress would be ruined by the time we finally emerged from the sardine-packed, sweaty, Caribbean-themed Mardi Gras style insanity. Amazingly, the dress (and I) came out unscathed, and now that summer memory is so very intertwined with that dress.

Thank you so much for hosting this lovely giveaway!

When I was younger I had jellies in about EVERY color to match my outfits and my friends were always commenting, even at 4 years old haha.

Recently, I just remember shopping in Rome and not knowing any Italian but loving every minute of shopping over there!

Thanks for the great giveaway!
