Summer Dress Shopping!
Summer Dress Shopping!

Yay! Its Memorial Day! To look outside you would never know it. Here in Chicago, it is cloudy, gloomy and really cold! I am literally in fleece and jeans but flip flops - it is after all the official start to summer! I am thinking if I dress like it is summer, summer will notice and come for a nice LONG visit.
So, I have some weddings and events coming up and I really want a new summer dress. I know we have bunches of them hanging in our closets but there is something about a new sun dress that just starts the summer off right!
This is my dream dress:

I love this so much! I only hope it looks this cute once I try it on - usually it does not! :-)
Then there is always Lilly Pulitzer - the quintessential summer uniform of the preppy at play.
Here are some of her Summer 2013 offerings:

Ooops - gotta go - more later. The rain stopped and I have to try and mow the lawn!
