This month at denisebrain, the garden party never ends, with plenty of blooming prints and sun-loving styles!
This is a tribute to a wonderful older woman that I met years ago when I answered an ad advertising a 200-item vintage clothing collection for sale. Joann lives far away now, and is in failing health. I know she looks at things online with the help of her daughter, and I think--actually I know--it will please her to see her favorite sort of flowery and feminine clothing shown in her honor.
