summer fever

I feel like I have been counting down the Months, days, hours, minutes and seconds to when I would be able to wear a dress with no cardigan or tights. The day has finally arrived and I am so glad! The other day I was talking to a friend about how when I lived in Australia, I never got too excited about the heat. It was the same thing, everyday. Hot, humid, sweaty...after a while (a week) you kind of get over it. But after a long Winter, and gorgeous Spring, I came to appreciate the Summers here in Canada so much more than I ever have before. Its been almost four years since I have been home to be able to actually see the seasons change. Its lovely! Hope you are having nice weather wherever you are. Happy Summer!! :)

Dress - Lets not talk about it.
Belt - Thrited
Sandals - Aldo

    Gorgeous print on that dress! I'm sure I'd forget to appreciate summers as well, although living in London summer is pretty short lived so any sunny day is a god send! xx

    Aw! I still can't go without something more than a dress 'round Oregon, here. It is kind of sad, because I'd really love to. I believe the weather outside is sitting firmly at 55F/13C for the next week at least. Ugh.

    The floral on your dress is fun and I love the detail on the shoes! Plus, you tied that belt all crazy-cool. (:

    You look so fantastic in this dress! I agree with you. I live in upstate NY, and we also get to enjoy each of the seasons. It makes you appreciate them so much more. They all seem so different!

    I love this! So happy you get to wear summer clothes. I pretty much can't wear anything heavier than this outfit from April to October! The tassels on your shoes are great!

    I'm thinking about what "let's not talk about it" means :) Hehe! But you look gorgeous and I stepped outside in a dress without tights/cardigan today for the first time and it felt WONDERFUL!! I understand your joy .I don't know how I'd live without seasons- eeeep. They keep me sane!

    Lovely photos! That floral dress is really pretty, I love floral prints and I LOVE dresses, so everytime I see a floral dress my heart somersaults. :) Summer is a lovely season, yes, but here in the Philippines it's almost summer the entire year, so I wear mostly short dresses and sleeveless tops. I look forward to the colder days, times when I can wear a chic cardigan and tights.

    So true, it feels like summer took awhile to get here, but it is the best feeling to be able to go out without a jacket! Love your dress and those are such fun sandals, you look perfectly summer and perfectly pretty
