I would wear this dress on a stroll through Heidelberg, Germany, taking in all the University sites and a stop at Hemingway's cafe to have a coffee. Looks so breezy-easy, I might need to even bring a colorful scarf to stay a little warmer at night. :)

This dress is perfect for brunch at the conservatory followed by a long walk along the river. It's so classy yet versatile I could wear it out for some cocktails and conversation with friends after a long day of exploring the city and still look fabulous.

Cathey said...

Yay! Your first giveaway!

I feel completely lame admitting that I don't currently own any dresses, but one of my main reasons for starting a blog was dressing in a more feminine way, and this dress would be a gorgeous way to start!I unfortunately have no summer weddings to attend or trips out of Texas planned, but my best friend and sister-in-law will be turning 30 this summer and we're planning a girls' day for her birthday. This would be the perfect dress to ensure I won't be the only un-stylish person in jeans!
Thanks for the chance!

I would wear it at my December 2011 Bon Voyage party, and then I'd take it from city to city on my upcoming travels...

I've taken a hiatus from buying new clothes in order to save for my 2012 round-the-world trip. This year-long journey around the globe has been a dream of mine for years, and now that it's so close to becoming a reality, I'm banking on the delayed gratification now yielding a handsome payoff next year.

My itinerary will include Cuzco, Peru; Buenos Aires, Argentina; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; a transatlantic ship voyage (and yes, as a backpacker, I'll be in dire need of something suitable to meet the cruise line's wardrobe expectations!) Barcelona, Spain; Fez, Morocco; Beirut, Lebanon; Cape Town, South Africa; Zanzibar, Tanzania; Columbo, Sri Lanka; Vientiane, Laos; Bali, Indonesia; and Christchurch, New Zealand...

Oh would you please give me a signature outfit to wear in my soon-to-be forever-keepsake photos? I'll send you postcards along the way!

xx

missjinjin said...

this whimsical frock shall be worn jumping down the rabbit hole, crossing international lines & getting lost in translation in yet another wonderland; traipsing down the unconventional, free-spirited lifestyle of the globetrotter; drinking in the blur of worldly experiences, eclectic cultures, inspiring peoples; 
daydreaming in vivid colors and offbeat scenes. 

le sigh.

from a fellow traveler to another, it takes a kurious kat to know a kurious kat. =) 

Bhav said...
