green dress


 

I couldn't possibly be more into autumnal shades of green right now. Anything olive, army green or forest green just sends me. I was happy to pull this fine frock out of my closet today, I feel like I look just like my grandmother did at my age.

    SO lovely--I adore how it has the over-sized buttons. I have been itching to make/find a frock with large buttons lately. I love how you did your hair too--so gorgeous! :)

    You look gorgeous Lauren. I love the dress and the hair! Just too gorgeous :)

    And even though I'm going into summer here, I'm crazy about olive/forest/army green at the present too! One day I will find the perfect forest green wool pencil skirt...

    You look perfect from head to toe! I think we all want to know your tricks for getting your hair to look like that. I am hoping you will say that it's easier than it looks. :-)
