'The Course of True Love Never Did Run Smooth'


Most assuredly, my dear ladies, I have found my beloved Anthropologie Softshape dress that I had lamented over in a previous post - the very one that was lost by the incompetence of the USPS.  Fortune was not so kind as to smile on my plight and bring the lost package to me, but I did spy the dress again on eBay (what a chance!) and was again the winning bidder!  Never mind that I spent much more on it this time around (although still never spending more than its original retail price)....mere trifles.  I have the dress in hand and it is all cuteness; just as it was when I first laid eyes on it two years ago in Anthropologie. 
***am currently re-reading the entire Sherlock Holmes series, hence my writing***

Would like to thank Marcela of Times Like Mine for thinking of  me on her blog post!
Check out her blog ladies. It's super awesome!
