Dress: Consignment. Rings: Street vendors. Large apple turquoise ring: New Orleans. Black stud cuff: Trash and Vaudeville
When it’s this hot in New York, all I want to wear is anything with maximum ventilation. Long or short. I’m not fussed. I really liked the Pucci 70s print vibe of this dress. The skirt is huge; almost wedding gown like.
This is our kitchen (small enough for one so you can imagine our bickering for elbow space). I’ll post some more shots soon of my casa.

Such a beautiful dress, Karen! When you decide to part with it… 🙂
I like how much light comes into your kitchen. It sort of looks like mine. The stove, micro., sink, window and door are all in the same place. Mine is a bit bigger, though. It has a dishwasher.

You’re such a beauty Karen!
I wonder what kind of wedding gown you’d wear?
Makes me nostalgic….first thing I pretty much designed was a wedding dress for this woman in the states. “lol” It was such an honor!

Moda Epidemic says:
Your look great in this dress. I always thought that long dresses are for tall people and I’m that tall so I don’t think I could pull that off but you look just perfect.

Karen says:
Moda Epidemic – I think as long as you keep to a darker colour without a busy pattern and wear wedges for some height then alot of shorter girls can wear them I think? Like anything, you have to try on a few…..
Kara – you are soooo right.
Mery Elle – thank you
Loobs – cool!! Glad you like the ring too.
