If you steal my sunshine

...I will wear as much bright yellow as I possibly can and persuade it to come back.
After several days of nothing but grey skies and rain, I decided to put on my yellow dress, and the sun decided to make an appearance.
Thank goodness that worked!
If you steal my sunshine
If you steal my sunshine
If you steal my sunshine

    I really like how you paired those tights with that dress. I never would have thought of that. You look pretty in these photos by the way. :)

    Hooray for yellow! (I'm wearing it tomorrow.) Your blog title today: I had not heard that song in YEARS and then it came on the radio last week. And then Parks & Rec last week had Leslie listening to it on her laptop. And then it was on VH1's One Hit Wonders of the 90's. And now your blog! Funny.

    That's so funny you wore something bright and cheerful to bring out the sun! It worked! Unfortunately for me I just went with the dreary weather and dressed in head-to-toe black. :O)

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, I so wish I could wear yellow! What a great outfit to bring the sun out in. And I really like all of the yellow paired with the more subdued floral cardigan.

    Gorgeous dress!!!! OMG. I've been so obsessed with yellow this spring. My yellow pants will not die. Ever. Or even go away for that matter. I have a yellow dress, but it doesn't fit too well. I'm thinking this one would suit me juuuuust fine.
