a pink dress in chicago wind

Wednesday, March 27, 2013


Chambray shirt: Old Navy // Pink Dress (worn as skirt): Thrifted // Shoes: Gift 

I remember the day that I found this lovely dress at the D.I. in Provo. It screamed... TAKE ME HOME-- so I did. It cost me 6 dollars. I have had it for about 4 years now and only worn it once, yet I have carted it from apartment to apartment and now across state lines. I knew it possessed some sort of magic I could just never figure out how to harness. Turns out all this little dress needed was some Chicago wind.
