Last night I went to a reception at my previous job to honor a retired coworker. I put a lot of thought into what to wear because it was the first time I've seen many of the board members and volunteers since I left. I wanted to make sure that I looked as good as I feel, and I feel very good.
Dress, Magic, TJ MAXX (overdyed by me); sandals, Montego Bay Club, Payless Shoes; leaf earrings and dragonfly necklace, purchased in Cozumel.
I purchased this dress over a year ago and this is only the second time I've worn it. I hate it when I do that. I liked the fit and pattern a lot, but it was ivory with chocolate brown detailing, and I just don't wear much white. I finally had the brilliant idea to over-dye it with a wine/pink dye, and now I think it will find its rightful spot in my regular rotation. It is much more flattering to my skin tone and it will show coffee less when I inevitably spill it on myself.
Un-fun fact: When I stepped under the tree for these photos I stepped into a fire ant nest. Now my feet are covered in fire ant stings. I hate those sons of bitches.

That dress is amazing, and those fire ants SUCK!!! Hope your feet get relief soon!
