What better way to celebrate the first day of spring than by dressing for a garden party?



The blue suitdress is by Jenny, a thrift shop find in August 2011; the shoes are Mossimo "Valonia" blue patent pumps, from Target in March 2009. Other accessories are a white hat, scarf, white gloves, silver jewelry, and natural hose. One of the things I love about this dress is the way it shows off my curves from any angle.



I'm so happy to see spring arrive!
