This dress was perfect for the cruise.  It was comfortable, colorful and carefree.  I could ball this dress up and it would not have one wrinkle in it. I bought this dress on sale at Macy’s about a year ago and it has been such a asset to my spring and summer wardrobe.

My hubby took this picture and it’s one of my favorites because I love the surfboard bench. So cool! When I sat down on it, I felt like I was riding on the wave. The brown and blue beadwork around the neckline gives the dress a very ethnic chic. The color of this dress works with any skin tone.

The beads are lightweight so there is no heavy feeling at all.  It’s a perfect dress for an 85 degree day. The lightweight shirt was a shirt I have had for a long time and just so happen to match this dress perfectly.  I love when that happens.


It was warm, but windy, and my hair was not cooperating, so up it went.

I hear often that the majority of women like wearing black. On the cruise I saw so much color. The colors of the sea and the vibrant patterns of the cruise guests made me smile.

So add some color! If you do not like to experiment with a colorful wardrobe, try a vibrant scarf for starters. See how it will make your outfit pop.
