Nude and Neon

I am in love with this dress.  I received the package first thing in the morning and immediately put it on - I know it's probably a bit out of season, but I had to test it out.  Such a sweet collar and demure length.
But most of all, I love how the nude dress has an unexpected contrast of neon along the bottom and how it's just sheer enough to see the contour of my legs beneath.  Nude and neon might be my favorite combination for Spring.
I pinned up my hair and framed the dress on top and bottom with simple grey.  Had to give the dress it's moment in the sun.
Simple accessories - python clutch, turquoise bracelet, and red leather gloves - work nicely to compliment the look.
My mom brought this necklace back for from one of her trips to Italy and my dad brought the turquoise bracelet back from a trip out west.
As we were shooting, the tarp on the fence blew up to reveal the desolate construction site behind.  Made for an interesting background for such a lady-like look.
