Dreaming of Mother’s Day Dresses…

According to my friend (a pastor), Mother’s Day is the 3rd biggest “church” going day of the year.  I guess you could say that my family and I are pretty big church goers ourselves..  Normally I just throw something on and get the monkey’s dressed.  When I arrive at church, I feel pretty good that we are there and all my children have combed hair.  If I let myself dream.. I wonder what it would be like to arrive in style.. looking cute… so here I have picked out a few little frocks on Etsy to wear to church and (if I’m lucky) dinner on Mother’s Day.  Which is your favorite?  Mine is the black striped or maybe the orange one.  Really I like them all.

How about this one with some cherry red ankle strap heels like Joan Crawford would wear?

It’s Time For Prom..

Prom time is here.  I don’t have any children of age to go to prom.. and my prom days are certainly over… but I love to look at prom dresses.  So if you would indulge me and let me pretend.. here are the dresses I would want to wear to prom this year.. (in no particular order..)

I think I would rock this with some FABULOUS black pointy toe pumps..
