Hello!
I took a break from all my remixing. Well not really--it's just been way too hot (like 90 degrees hot) lately so a dress was the way to go. My legs are way too pale, so until they get enough color on my morning bike rides, they'll remain under tights. I pulled out these grey tights because I figured they'd attract less heat since they're not black, but they really felt just as hot. You should already know that I am head over heels in love with this dress. I think I wore it three times already. It's just the epitome of Spring with the color and the happy florals right? I'm craving more sleeved floral dresses for this season. You can't really tell but the dress has some ruffle detailing along the collar and the sleeves that make it extra special. I can't wait to wear it on its own, as a top, and as a skirt. I was eyeing this dress during my "shopping ban." Even Robert was sad (deep down) I couldn't get it at the time, but I (and he I bet) was pretty relieved that I found a reason to get it during the 100% for Japan thing. This is my last thing from that. Phew! Seemed like a lot, but it was only three things.

I can't believe it's April already! March--and February for that matter--really flew by! I joined a gym recently because the satisfied feeling of losing 10 lbs has started to worn off. I've gotten used to this 'new' body and am ready to lose another 10 for a newer body. I gotta get beach ready! Tomorrow I'm going back to the flea market with my best friend and later meeting up with Beatrice too! How is your weekend dear friends?

Until next post,
Jasmine

  2. Jasmine, this dress is so pretty! We so often see you wearing separates, and I love that this dress is so classically you, but also a little different from your style too. It's perfect for spring!
    Congrats on losing 10 pounds and joining the gym! You are so stunning at any weight, but I am glad that you are feeling good in your body and striving to be healthy. I have been feeling a little lethargic lately and I'm so excited to start running again. It feels so great!

  3. I CAN'T GET OVER THE KID IN THE WINDOW. He was obviously trying to get into the picture since he knows you're Transient Withdrawal. Gotta get in that photo opp. :P

    You look so lovely in this dress (I love the up close shot of the dress and the belt) and I'm so jealous that you're hot wearing tights. I'm not even warm enough with tights on!

    Have fun at the flea market and meeting up with Beatrice!

    I went into the city yesterday for an interview and it was right by Union Square which was where the Chictopia event was! Miss you so much :)

  7. Super cute dress! And I love the gray tights underneath! We just need the weather to comply and stick to spring weather so that we can just wake up and wear a dress or skirt without having to look online for the weather.
