I won the paisley dress from this Romwe giveaway hosted by Karin at Wunderlust.

| Here's my dress from Romwe. |
Close up of the dress fabric. |
| What it looks like un-tucked. |
This is what I wanted the dress to resemble. |
| Just Cavalli Spring RTW 2012 |
This was my reality. |
| My reality did NOT match my vision. |
 |
| So, I tucked the dress into my thrifted skirt. |
 |
| With the headband, and without the headband. |
 |
| I still like the paisley pattern, and the lace detailing on the sleeves. |
 |
| My twin nieces are two years old! |
| My art journal pages: Left page was journaling outside.  |
| The right page is a house, I created with collage. I wrote: Last year I drew my dream house. Now I'll describe it: on a beach, or near the woods, away from neighbors barking dogs, away from airplanes, and trains, and noisy cars, away from children screaming, like a fairy tale cottage, gingerbread house, stone gate, or bricks, gables, high ceilings, wild flowers, ivy, stained glass, bay windows, rainbow prisms on the wall. |
