At first I blamed the sudden interest in skirts and dresses on the ridiculously hot summer we've been having here in the NorthEast. 107 degrees + humidity anyone? Yeah, me either. But, if I'm to be honest, I'm a tried and true New Yorker. I've been wearing jeans and tees through some of the hottest months without a thought. They say your tastes change as you age (can we find another way to say that, I feel like a reference to cheese or something), but I didn't expect this. Now don't get me wrong, I won't be picking up a french poodle anytime soon but I really like this sudden embrace of le femme. In the wardrobe it's translated to figure skimming dresses, and at home I'm suddenly drawn to wallpaper, less severe lines, and French Provincial. French Povincial people! Me!?! If the new me were a couch it would have a sophisticated curvy frame and be upholstered in a simple white linen. I can live with that. Image: Living Etc

I like the *new* you. And the *old* you as well... it's fun to mix it up a bit...
Did you happen to see the lines on the table that @johnstrauss tweeted the other night?
Both French + Modern = all at once!
Gorgeousness.
I think there is room for all of it, but then again, I blatantly call myself a maximalist on the front page of my blog...
Enjoy the dresses!

P.S. My very favorite Summer dress is the organic cotton Seniorita dress... I think it'd look cute on you too ~ that chalkboard or mercury color? Please, it would be beautiful with your coloring!
