I will buy you a garden, where your flowers can bloom

Hello!
So these pictures have been a long time coming.. I won the Delightfully Tacky giveaway for this dress from Dixi (formerly Baby Says Boutique ) back in March. It was waiting for me in a package on my bed when I came home from school a week ago.
I absolutely love it!
Dress: Dixi via giveaway, Shoes: Vintage
Sorry the pictures are a little washed out, the dress is a very pale pink.
And it's unlike anything I've ever owned! Never owned a one-shoulder garment, but I love this one. It feels like something I'd wear to a tea party.
This cameo brooch I got in a church junk sale for 50 cents! I've been looking for years for a garment to attach it to, and now I finally think I've found it.
And one more thing that makes me happy today...
Making my own ice cream sandwiches!
I had never tried this before, and I suggest that you go try it right now!
Two of any kind of cookie, homemade or storebought + Any flavor of ice cream + sprinkles or chocolate chips around the outside = your new favorite summer treat.
Trust me, it's way better than a prewrapped ice cream sandwich.

  3. I love every single thing about this post.

    One shouldered dresses are fab, and it looks wonderful on you. So lucky to win the giveaway!!

    I'm all about cameos, so I think that piece is just gorgeous.

    Anddddd homemade ice cream sandwiches are my favorite. Store-bought just don't cut it.

    Love this post!
