A love story – a girl and a dress

In college I loved Sex and the City. It was quite normal to have SATC marathons with my girlfriends that lasted to the wee, wee hours. The last season aired during my last year of college. On Sundays, my girlfriends and I would grab dinner and then watch SATC. During that season, the main character, Carrie Bradshaw, lived in Paris. One episode she was walking through Paris, absorbing all the city’s grandeur, and she was wearing this:

I fell in love.

Since that day, I’ve been on the search for a wonderful dress that draws on Carrie, Lucille, and Audrey.

Then, about a month ago, I came across this wonderful Etsy store. There I found, and feel in love with, a beautiful dress:

Jonathan and I talked about waiting until my birthday, in late March, to buy it, but I just couldn’t wait, since there was only one dress in my size and the dressmaker isn’t doing any more. So, last week, with fluttering in my heart, I bought my dress.

It arrived last night.

And is every bit as dreamy as I imagined.

It will be perfect for my Parisian vacation.
