The Tea Dress
Today I visited a favorite blog, The Simply Luxurious Life, to catch up on her great posts. What jumped out at me was the tea dress the blogger, author Shannon Ables, pictured in her post Outfit of the Week: Afternoon Tea. Green. Be sure to go see this post–the shoes alone are to die for, but the dress! Wow! Wow! Wow! (You can pre-order Shannon’s new book, coming out in November. Read all about it here.)
Anyway, now I’m seeing superb green dresses everywhere! Back in August I posted on copycat covers for the book After The Party which featured, you got it, a green dress.

Green Dresses At The Recent Royal Weddings
Princess Anne (The Princess Royal) in green at Princess Eugenie’s wedding
Mother of the Bride, Sarah, Duchess of York (aka “Fergie” aka Sarah Ferguson) in green at her younger daughter’s wedding.
Lady Kitty Spencer, eldest of Lord Spencer’s seven children by his three wives, won my vote for the most elegant lady at Prince Harry’s wedding. (Her mother, former model Victoria Lockwood (now Aitken) also wore green).
Here are the book covers for comparison

Thank you for the kind mention and link back! The dress is absolutely lovely, elegant, yet effortlessly chic. Thank you for all of the green sartorial images. It is quite popular. Wow!

Green is a good color and I agree, Lady Kitty Spencer looks most elegant and lovely in her green dress!

So many trashy looks these days, but that was back to the days of elegant society.

I love that shade of green! (I’ll probably see green dresses on book covers everywhere now!).
