Spring is making promises outside

There is a lot to love about spring; the days get longer, temperatures rise just enough to abandon tights, the flowering trees burst into life, and fashion moves toward bright colors and bold statements.

London Times has a stellar spring lookbook this year, and they kindly sent me this fuchsia and orange lace dress. As with all their dresses, it's unbelievably comfortable, priced under $100, and is so very flattering. Also, machine washable. As someone who resents having to take anything to the dry cleaners, I really appreciate this. I would definitely recommend checking out their new arrivals!

    OOooOOooh la la, what a lucky girl you are to receive such a gorgeous dress--and the bright fuchsia color is just perfect for the beginning of spring. I love that you paired it with neon--that necklace is so stunning, Lyddie!

    And now I will indeed be checking out their things, because I've heard of them before from you and they seem to have a bunch of cute, fairly modest things! <3

    I didn't know of London Times until you started collaborating with them, so I have to thank-you for the introduction... I have yet to see a single thing from their collection that I didn't love, and that definitely includes this dress. I love that the dress under the lace overlay is orange, rather than a predictable shade like white or black. It's subtle, but it gives a touch of unexpected whimsy that I love. And your yellow necklace is pretty much perfect - I seriously want one in my life!

    Oh so pretty! And the photography is stellar also. :)

    I'm the same way...must be machine washable. Dry cleaning need not apply.
