Fresh As A Daisy!

This is the blog post that almost didn't happen. My MacBook laptop spent two days in the hospital. The good news, it is back at home and on the mend. For a while, I thought I may have to check myself in, too. Today's inspiration comes from all of May's flowers, especially the daisy. Dolce & Gabbana, Kate Spade, and Oscar de la Renta have declared the demure daisy, the flower of Spring. I like it, too. I think it's the seventies vibe that I am feeling. So step into my secret garden and enjoy!

The Best Of BCBGMAXAZRIA & 30% Off

I have always loved the boho vibe of BCBGMAXAZRIA. "Max Azria worked as a designer in Paris for 11 years before coming to the US. With the French adage “Bon chic, bon genre” (Good style, good attitude) behind its name, BCBGMAXAZRIA clothing evokes both European sophistication and American spirit." Now is a good time to shop and save 30% on everything until May 12th.

Love the playful prints of this terrific top. If you aren't into the cropped look, simply add a tee as shown. Those bell sleeves add the drama.
