floral dV F auna



We were in Southampton (Long Island, not England) the other day and met Mariella. I asked where she got her lovely floral frock and she pointed across the street and said 'Diane Von Furstenberg, where I work!' She just looked like the happiest girl, and without even asking I could tell she clearly endorsed the product. I've always loved DVF, ever since I was a teenager and an ex-boyfriend's older brother's girlfriend was allegedly best friends with her, and I love her website.



It's funny, Vik @ Magpie Girl just recently posted on florals ('flora V fauna') which inspired my (somewhat lame) title. (What can I say: it's late, I've been swimming all day, and I'm missing watching the Jonas Brothers DVD with Scarlett). Vik's had some health problems recently and I'm glad she's home and getting well, and I agree: in summer, I can never get tired of floral frocks. This one on Mariella is perfect on her, and I love it with her blue suede sandals that she got 'somewhere in Brazil.'

Also a big fan of DVF -- very few people do dresses better. I just wish she didn't cut her clothes so small! That floral print is swoony.

Thanks for the very lovely long comment (:
Most of my photos are taken my a 16 year old friend who is completely amazing, but the hat ones were actually taken by my mum..I'm quite impressed as she didn't even know how to use my camera a few weeks ago!
I've tried doing self timer photos, but they never come out very well so I just stick to letting other people take them!
I wouldn't mind if you lifted one of my photos for a "hats off.." I'd be very happy. Thanks!
