This is one of the first dresses I bought from Grey Dog and it’s still a favorite. I typically wear it on St. Patty’s but also like to bring it out other times. Wearing green makes me feel lucky for some reason. The (gigantic) hair was a bit of an accident. I put leave-in conditioner on dry hair and put it up before I went to sleep. When I took it down this in the morning, I put it in hot rollers.

One of my favorite, most versatile dresses ever. It did get a little warm in the 100 degree + Arkansas heat, though.

What I Wore: Big Blue

what I wore: shift – bonnie blair via grey dog, heels – quipid, earrings – boutique in SF

This shift is actually the top of some kind of pant suit. I’ve never seen the pants but you can only imagine. It’s a really fun piece because it can be worn loose and flowing or belted.
