Mermaid Afternoon

Don’t we all dream of being mermaids? For this outfit I brushed my long red hair with a fork and put together an outfit that evokes “Under the Sea” glamour in the daytime. First off…I love the instant elegance of a maxi dress! This one is vintage (for only $15!) from Dechoes Resale. My favorite shop in my hometown of Orlando.

The “coral” looking turquoise necklace is from a little stall in England’s Spitalfield’s market. I found it for £10 and knew it would be a beautiful piece to mix in with so many colors. I must say though, this sort of peachy coral backdrop was my favorite. It stands out but still compliments the dress.

A breezy gown and a statement necklace is THE easiest way to feel glamorous in ungodly hot temperatures. I had such fun shooting on this sunny afternoon with Gunther in historic Ybor City, Florida. The farmer’s market is full of fabulous treasures and handmade crafts. If you’re in the area be sure to explore.
