I was just tickled pink (hee hee) when the lovely Andreae emailed me to let me know that her daughter, the Miss B I’m talking about here, was inspired by my version of this Built by Wendy dress.   I especially love Miss B’s choice of pink candy-striped fabric!  I think she looks so sweet, don’t you?  Please check out Andreae’s post about this adorable dress (and a little candy-striped number she ended up wearing herself).

Speaking of candy-striped goodness, I have been saving some other sweet things to share with you…

I haven’t been this excited about candy-stripes since I bought pink and white candy canes for my tree last Christmas. :)

Ok, wedding-related notion shopping I must go.  I know I owe you all a wedding update post!  Coming soon, I promise.

        I love those cabochons from ScarlettsGarden! They look like candy and I just want to eat them up!!! What a great pair of earrings they’d make for that dress!

          It’s always so difficult to find just the right stripes — most are too wide. These are just perfect!

            Hee hee! When I showed this to Miss B, she remembered that your dress had a ruffle… guess what I ended up doing until 11:30 last night? There’s a new pic on the blog…
