For Love and Lemons Sweet Tea Maxi Dress (now 40% off)

I can’t believe summer is coming to an end. Depending on where you live, it may have officially ended. I am really excited about this For Love and Lemons Sweet Tea maxi dress because it’s a great seasonal transition piece. It’s light and somewhat breezy, but the color and black lace makes it work in the summer, fall and winter (as long as it’s somewhat warm). If you’re planning a resort getaway this fall/winter it would be a great piece to take with you if you’re tired of all of the summer brights and patterns.
These pictures were taken by Willie Kessel. If you’re ever in the LA/Santa Barbara area and want beautiful, thoughtful and unique photos, I recommend him. Besides, he is really down to earth and kind. Shooting with that kind of energy is always a good thing.
Willie and I had planned to shoot this dress by the pool. As we went out to shoot, we realized all the kids had jumped in (my boys and their cousins). Instead of trying to fight it, we decided to surrender to the moment and shoot with them in the pool. As chaotic as parenthood can be at times, I couldn’t be more grateful for my babies and the lessons they teach me everyday (like letting go when you want the “perfect” pool shot). They bring so much richness to my life.
I am crushing on almost anything For Love and Lemons
Have a beautiful day. XO

September 10, 2014 at 6:48 amThe lace on this maxi dress is incredible! I love how, although it has an extremely elegant look to it, I feel you could still wear it during the daytime if you dress it down a little, maybe flats instead of heals. <3 it!
