At the start of each season, I feel the urge to run out a purchase the newest and hottest items, often forgetting about the hidden gems in my closet. Like this dress, purchased from Zara at the start of their summer sale, but it hung in closet for the remainder of July and August with the hopes of coming out for an end-of-season wedding that I  was attending. I ended up wearing another dress, and this beautiful marble printed dress continued to wonder when I would wear it.

Early this week, Trevor, my husband, invited me out for a dinner date, and I decided to take this baby for a spin. I sometimes forget that dressing-up for no reason, makes each moment a fashionable memory.
