Greek Goddess

I'm counting down the days until I can go on a mini-vacation (weekend trip) up north to relax in an Adirondack chair, book & iced tea in hand.  That will be happening next weekend!  I haven't been up to my family's cottage for almost a year.  I don't know how that happens!  John Lennon's famous quotation, "Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans" comes to mind.  Oh life.  How have you kept me away from this particular relaxing adventure for so long?

maxi dress: c/o House of Maxi | shoes: Report | necklace: gift

Kathryn from House of Maxi generously sent me this beautiful maxi dress a few weeks ago.  Let me just say that I have found my new best friend (as far as clothing goes).  I've never owned a maxi dress or skirt, so when Kathryn asked if I would like to style one I hopped up and down saying "yes!!" (of course, she couldn't actually see me hopping, but I was!)

I anxiously waited for her site to officially launch in April so that USA shoppers could order their own awesome maxi dress online.  I got to choose from a variety of different styles and color combinations.  I ended up going with buttercup because I think it makes my hair seem even brighter than it already is, and I love embracing my natural red hair!  The quality of this dress is super nice.  Handmade by Kathryn, you are sure to get a beautiful maxi dress.  It was perfect for wearing on Michigan's 95 degree day last Monday, and then also worked when the temperature fell to 50 degrees on Thursday.  I just threw a jean jacket over it and was good to go!

I'd also like to point out the fact that the first time I wore this dress I was told I look like a Greek Goddess.  Okay, I'll take that! :)

Happy Sunday!
