Crimson And Clover

Climbing trees and attempting to get in a good position for a picture in the 10 second self-timer window is difficult. Perhaps I secretly like the trials, because I keep devising implausible places to take outfit pictures? I really do enjoy climbing trees although I haven't done it enough recently (and I would never normally attempt to do it in heels).

I recently received a sweet little package from Toujours Toi Family Affairs and my favorite item inside was this dress. From the front it is a simple, well-cut black dress, but then you turn around and there's this stunning and interesting back. The straps are adjustable and can be tied a number of ways, although I haven't really done much experimenting with them yet! I really look forward to wearing this piece a lot this summer when the days of sunshine and warmth arrive...or I hunt them down elsewhere.

This is my favorite cardigan in my closet and my mother keeps threatening to steal it from me because she likes it as well! Here's a few ways I've worn it in the past.
