It’s amazing what can come from the simplest starting point. With one spark of inspiration, a whole world of ideas can be fanned into flame. Take today’s post, for example. All inspired by one sweet and simple dress. But let me be clear: this is no ordinary dress. It is a dress that led to a picnic, and that picnic led to a photo shoot, and that photo shoot led to a video shoot, and that video shoot led to an adventure. But I’m getting ahead of myself. For now, the dress.

From Anthropologie’s Fit and Flare collection, this shapely little shift is perfect for girly curves. Light as air, beautifully tailored and whimsical, it had me at hello. Add to that the hidden pockets {perfect for storing secret love notes} and it’s all a girl could hope for in a swinging summer frock.
