The Daffodil Girl
I took these photos a couple of weeks ago. I got this dress last summer in Paris at free p store, a crazy vintage shop in the Marais district (I think). The shop is quite small but totally crammed with vintage, all the dresses were about 20 euros and there was a bargain 3 euro box too. When I got there a guy was just filling up the dress rack with piles of dresses, and I found this one. It's handmade, and although I wouldn't normally wear yellow, I couldn't resit the sweet pattern of roses, with tiny ladybirds and little labels, written in french. I wanted to take some photos wearing it near some daffodils, and I happened to drive past this churchyard full of them, and also those strange leafless trees. A perfect location.

You should use one of these for your header! They are that beautiful. ;P I particularly like the avenue of leafless trees. Ou est?

Agree! The third one is the best. Who took them?
ReplyDeleteI never appreciated how hard it is to find beautiful shoot locations until I started my own blog. Now whenever I see a pretty place I make a mental note on my head.
Your dress + flowers = magic
