Floats Like a Butterfly

I titled this post after my "butterfly" dress.  This was actually an impulse buy from my last trip to the farmers market.  I couldn't resist!  It's flows so beautifully.  The purchase made me happy.  Then Tuesday when I wore it to a birthday, dinner I was happy all over again.  Pretty good, two happy's out of a $15.00 impulse buy (that possibly is cheaper than wine happy).  When I got home from the dinner I asked the Man to snap a couple of shots for the blog.  He's getting better at it and is now even telling me how to pose.  Not that it really helped the photos but it was a lot of fun.  After a year and a half of blogging I am still self conscious about having my picture taken.  I guess I'm just used to the tri pod and zinga-zanga pics are done and ready to edit.  He does seem to take longer but, he's like that.  I'm also experimenting a bit with color resolution and some of the other things that photo shop has to offer.  I tell you, that is an amazing program but not for the weak at heart and by no means user friendly.  Everything I have learned has been from on line videos. I just watch stop and start until I have it.  The sad thing is, I have been so distracted that by the time I get ready to use that feature again I can't remember how to do it and have to start all over again!  Oh, well.  The trials of a 50+ blogger never end.

Many cities are having their 4th of July celebrations this weekend.  So have fun, remember what the holiday stands for (I'm a Navy Mom) and be safe.

Does anybody know what the style of this dress is called?  I really do love it and was thinking about making a couple more.............that's how I roll!
