It’s been a little quieter over here on the blog lately. Where have I been? Too, too busy, and it has been so worth it. For the past few weeks, we’ve been rehearsing for Gotterdammerung, the last of the Ring Cycles at the Houston Grand Opera. I’m one of the aerial supers!

Spring Dress, Flowing Breeze
Flowing pleated spring dresses tied at the waist with string. I love the way a light breeze gives a little life to a spring dress. It reminds me that dresses are made for dancing in, that there’s something new around the corner, and that days should be filled with sun and laughter. Make it matter. – Photography by Chris – Flowing Floral Pleated Dress Evanthe Dress / Sakura Maxi Dress / Floral Pleated Mini Dress / Carmen Marc Valvo Collection / Floral Dress Small Gold Bucket Bag Sophie Hulme Small Nelson Bucket Bag / Mansur Gavriel Mini Bucket Bag / Ted Baker Ersilda Mini Bucket Bag / J Crew Mini Bucket Bag in Metallic Leather …
