Good morning, friends! I hope everyone enjoyed the Easter holiday. We were lucky enough to have amazing weather to enjoy the outdoors and wear our Easter best without freezing. Fun fact, it HAS snowed in PA before on Easter. Thankfully, not this year!

Over the holiday weekend I pulled out this dark floral dress to wear for some errands around town and on an ice cream date with my very special little lady. I can't help but smile every time I see a flowering trees in bloom too. There are quite a few out right now, but they are so short lived that its important to delight in their splendor any chance that I get. With all of the blooms out, a floral dress was an easy choice. The camera bag pairs beautifully with the dress in matching blush and black tones. The cardigan provides the prettiest pop of yellow and some added sparkle to brighten up the look. The keyhole detail in the back is anything but ordianry. I love how it shows some skin, but not too much skin. Just the perfect amount!

Dark Floral Dress // The Kennedy Center

I have to say I am beyond excited for fall to get here. I'm always excited for the next season when it is about one month away. That being said, the season after fall I am not so excited for, haha. I'm soaking up as much summer as I can while slowly transitioning over to my fall wardrobe. Dark florals are a fantastic way to still wear summer staples that look and feel like fall. This midi dress with pleating, perfect for twirls!, is so beautiful for wearing throughout the day and even into night. While I was in DC, I wore this to explore the Kennedy Center and then out to dinner and drinks with some friends. The Tignanello bag was a perfect match for the subtle pink flowers in the dress. The shade is called Peony, though it reminds me more of a rose. I love the lady like dome shape and have been carrying this everywhere lately, even to the Shinedown concert last night, which was fantastic by the way!

The Kennedy Center is showing The Phantom of the Opera right now until August 20th. I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw the signs and costumes out on display. Phantom is favorite Broadway play and one of my favorite movies. I wish I had known ahead of time, I would have gone! I have seen it in New York a few years ago. Kennedy and Phantom in one building (enter the heart eye emoji here.) My cousin took me all around the building and then eventually out onto the roof where the outfit photos were taken. If you have not ever been, I would highly recommend visiting and taking in a show. Even the staff members were a delight to talk to.
