good morning! it's me, mrs. french....it is hot and humid in Portland. Honestly days like these the only thing I want to wear is cool cotton dresses. Yesterday I stopped by my favorite Portland dress shop and tried on that very thing...which is where the blissful inspiration for today came from....
psst...tap the stars...
typically what happens when I put this post together a crazy surge of inspiration comes over me, which is exactly what happened here...
The dresses are lovely! My mom always wore dresses, but I particularly remember the cool, cotton dresses she wore in the summertime when I was a little girl (in the 70s).
