I was busy packing (or busy procrastinating packing, depending on who you ask) the entire Labor Day weekend.  This dress had been on my radar for some time, and I’m still completely in love with it.  I obviously have an affliction for bold red maxi’s, but this one may take the cake.  I considered it a few times during my packing process, unfortunately, it’s not quite appropriate for tromping around the streets of New York City, especially with rainy days in the forecast.  For now it will have to be reserved for whimsical days in my field-filled hometown.
