Easter Dressing


Hippity Hoppity Easter's on its way!!! Totally something a Mamma would say in her sweet excited voice! But it's true gals, Easter is just around the corner and one of my favorite traditions throughout my life is the selection of my Easter dress. Easter outfits aren't just for children.  It's a time to refresh with pastel colors, pretty flowers and all the frills.

I feel like Christmas is a much bigger day in our society but for me Easter is everything! It is my MOST FAVORITE DAY of the ENTIRE YEAR - I love it more than my birthday (which is 2 weeks from today) and the 4th of July. I know that Jesus had to be born but the fact that he died a brutal death for mine and every single person's sins and rose again, well that should give you chill bumps!

I have to be honest, this is not going to be my Easter dress.  It was a high contender but naturally I want to match/coordinate with baby Vivian Louise and when I decided on her dress, which is a pale baby blue with pink accents and a pink bonnet (I literally swoon thinking about how precious she's going to be) I decided on this pink dress.

Sidenote: I'm almost finished with her Easter basket/gifts and I am beyond giddy for her to go on her first egg hunt. She runs more than she walks (just like her Mamma) so I know it will be so much fun. 

First I love eyelet lace fabric - it's not as matronly or fancy as other types of lace.  It's cotton and light and the ruffled hem midi length is just the right amount of flounce on this dress. The ruffled shoulders and sash tied in a bow add just the right feminine details. It also comes in 3 other colors.





I also want to take a moment to talk about these earrings. They were a gift from my mother-in-law while she was visiting last week. They are mother of pearl so the iridescent colors compliment what ever shade you're wearing.  Although a statement, they are light weight and just enough for day or evening. I will be wearing them so much this Summer!

Easter Dressing

Easter Sunday is my MOST FAVORITE day of the year!!

The reason: 'He is Risen!" is the most important.  To celebrate the sacrifice so that we can be free is the greatest blessing! Can I get an Amen?!!!!

So, let's chat about the other reasons this day is my all time favorite.  It comes down to tradition.  For me, the memories of Easter are my most cherished so I cling to them caring them on every year.

Shopping for my Easter dress is the most fun shopping I do all year.  My mamma alway got me and my sisters pretty new dresses every year for Easter (and Christmas) and almost always they were matching ... I wasn't so crazy about twining back then, but I sure do miss it now!  The ruffles, lace, pastels, florals and twirling round and round are essential!  We didn't always get new shoes, purses and a hat but they were included in every Easter ensemble.

Our Easter dresses were always purchased at Belk, another tradition I continue.  It's the department store my family goes to for all our stylish needs.  They're customer service and great merchandise keeps me loyal.

And then there's the basket of pretty presents on Easter morning, Sunday supper, egg hunts, and cute little candied treats to fill the day with joy.

PSA: You can official begin wearing white! ... until Labor Day.  That's the rule for us Southern Gals.

When choosing your Easter look keep your colors light, jewelry classic (pearls), heels dainty and your hat big!
