Aneta









I've received many e-mails asking about the Aneta dress I wore on my birthday. I must say the pictures really do not do it justice. I wish my camera and photography skills were good enough to capture its whimsy :o). There are layers and layers of pure silk in this dress, that make for its ethereal feel and beautiful movement. I had enough fabric to make two more, will be listing these shortly.

It's hard to be a good blogger in the summer, too many days spent lounging around in less than picture-worthy attire. It's been weeks since I've woken up before noon, but I figure there's nothing wrong with being a lazy cat as long as I can sneak a couple of hours of productivity here and there.

Meow,

V

Beautiful dress, Vera. Just beautiful. I think you do an excellent job capturing your outfits- taking good photos isn't always about having a nice, expensive camera. Your photos always make me want to be where you are, spinning and twirling in whatever you are wearing. Job very well done, I say. ♥ ♥ ♥

The heels go so well with the dress, I love the outfit combo. And nothing wrong with lounging around and enjoying the summer. Winter months come way too soon.

Beautiful girl in a beautiful dress. Just love that one. I know what you mean about the movement problem -- the dress on my blog today is also very much about how it falls around a moving body, but there's no way to show that in a still.

beautiful dress. love the black with the light blue floral print. reminds me of a dress i once wore when i was just a tiny little kid.

i totally agree with out on how summer is like the decline in blogging. summer outfits are meant to be lazy and comfy and i rather not waste the time posting a pic of me in a tank dress and sandals with a necklace. or me in my sleepwear for that matter. i'm waiting for fall, but living in cali means i probably have to wait till late november :(
