Lady in Red

Diane von Furstenberg Kora dress

I’ve been looking for an easy travel dress over the last few weeks to bring on our trip to Denmark and Belgium in April. I wanted something that wasn’t fussy, could be worn more than once, and would stay wrinkle-free in a suitcase. Of course, Diane von Furstenberg came through — and it’s awfully appropriate that this dress will be on its way to DVF’s hometown of Brussels in a few weeks. Purchasing this dress was my first experience with MatchesFashion.com. The dress made it from London to Madison, Wis. in just two days and was packed beautifully in a marbleized box (which is now housing scarves after this weekend’s closet clean out). The best part? It wasn’t wrinkled at all. I have high hopes this dress is going to be the hero piece in my vacation wardrobe.

ASOS-1

I’m in love with the Lulu Guinness handbag I received from ASOS (and already wore in Monday’s post). As with any evening bag, there isn’t much room inside for anything other than the essentials: lipstick, breath mints, keys, and credit cards. It’s even a tight squeeze to get the iPhone 6s inside without the case. No matter. We usually have our phones out to Instagram and Snapchat anyway, right? While I’ve been wearing the quirky piece from Lulu Guinness’ “Tape Face” collection as a daytime accessory, you can bet it will be my go-to evening bag this holiday season. After all, a glittery conversation piece is a holiday must-have!

If you’re at all interested in the bag, it’s available on the ASOS website for $81, which I suspect is a mistake given that it’s $205 on the designer’s website. Order it now before ASOS discovers the discrepancy.

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

(The lamp and circle pillow were gifted. I purchased the other items.)

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
