The Real Housewives of New York traveled to Missoula, Montana, because nothing pumps up the drama like making a bunch of women who can barely tolerate each other travel together and be in each other’s company for days on end. Normally the women of New York are impeccably dressed for wherever they go, but with a few exceptions, the RHONY crew did not pack well for Montana. They were more Ralph Lauren New West than the real West. When they went to the rodeo, more than one wore a white prairie skirt. Rodeos are dusty and dirty events — and let’s not forget port-a-potties — where white skirts are downright silly. Watching, I realized I was seeing what city people think country folk wear. Either that or they all wanted to be Laura Ingalls once upon a time.

For your Laura Ingalls, country folk fantasies of prairie dresses in flowing pastels, Zenith’s contribution to Collabor88 is a perfect choice. The dress was released in several soft whites and tans as well as this delicate pink. There is a HUD to adjust the color of the rose and its leaves. It has a ruffled bottom which is the perfect length for letting my Ingenue shoes peep out and a beautiful lace ruffle along the neckline.

I added a romantic undo from EMO-tions and a necklace from Yummy that was at Collabor88 a few months ago.

My skin is a new release from Glam Affair called Kallisto. Its delicate pink tones seemed to perfectly suit the dress and that soft, ethereal romance the outfit suggests.
