There’s the scent of roses in the air – yellow, lemony roses carried by the breeze from the church down the street. It made me want to put on something floral and summery and I thought of this dress right away. From Bianca Foulon, the draping dress in grape is a floral confection with a full skirt tiered by a black lace wrap. I hesitated to wear it before because the neck prim seemed a bit to high and too snug, making me feel like tugging on my collar. I decided to leave off the neck prim this time and wear Japancakes magnificent Wild Petal Scarf. The scarf comes with a color change script and is one of those must-have accessories that can make a dozen outfits zing.

With such a bold scarf, I opted for more delicate jewelry including the Elle necklace in lilac from Muse and an amethyst and silver bracelet from Nightshade Fugu. Juicy’s vibrant grape slingbacks balance the scarf color and set the entire outfit off. For more photos, see my Flickr.
