I knew I had to have this dress from the moment I saw scans of it from British Vogue last April. Recognizing how I have 60,000 white dresses already, I had the sage wisdom to purchase it in this cutesy lemon yellow. I know, I impress myself sometimes, too. However, I can't get too saccharine and wear the thing with Maryjanes or something (unless they were my studded electric blue ones...hmmmmm) so out came my Aldo triple strap Velcros. I realize how lucky I am that my parents have such an idyllic backyard, it's especially dreamscape-like in the spring...my brother and I used to hang out in this treehouse always and only, even posting a bandit-like sign saying "KEEP AWAY" with red paint splattered all over it (blood, you see). One day I got scared when I saw a big caterpillar there and visits lessened slightly. Now it's sort of rotten and falling apart, and not at all the best place to pose in heels. But I still love treehouses, I've always wanted to live in one.
This would do..imagine the photo possibilities! And how horrifically scary it'd be at night!:

That tree house is the cutest ive ever seen and i cant even imagine seeing that for real.
Ah! I love it when you wear your headbands like that. I have yet to master the trend. And the dress is absolutely adorable. I can see why you HAD to have it :)
P.S. Amazing treehouse! Are your parents architects or something?
Your backyard looks like so much fun. The adventures must be endless! I am jealous. :]
I still beat myself up for trying on that dress, seeing how perfect it looks, then for some stupid reason not buying it.
cute treehouse!
Adorable, that treehouse – I only had a tiny, tiny version when I was younger. By the way: gorgeous dress, but only wearable when yopu're tanned. As you always are. Summing up: The perfect dress for YOU.
I was just thinking how gorgeous that dress is, then realised I've got it in white! completely forgotten about and unworn....oh dear. I need to bring it out of my wardrobe I think xx

your style is amazing!!
I love the combinations you do!
This little sunny dress is just simply perfect!!

that treehouse is amazing. i've always wanted one.
such a pretty dress too. wish i had an outdoor space for outfit pics.
Love the headband, it's the perfect finish to a pretty dress and mean heels.
you are the perfect modern hippie -- in smokin' shoes! love the writing as well -- "blood, you see"... but of course! :)
It's like a fairy tale!

That dress is Spring perfection! Your photo shoots always look like editorials, and were massive fans of the blog! Would you please add us to your links? Thanks, fashionsqueah!
What a cute dress :]
And that treehouse!! How fun
Gosh I love your dresses. I must find me some spring appropriate dresses. I will be bidding ferociously on your ebay store items! So excited!!!
Lovely setting!
The dress is also cute, did you have it shortened? i dont think its that short...
this yellow is beautiful with your skin, i love it!
i swear that's a mansion treehouse! all the treehouses i've ever seen were never this lovely.
and i love the dress and the headband. such a fun summer outfit.
The third and forth pic are really pretty back to back. SEE YOU ON FRIDAY! ;)
Haha, why am I not surprised that you and Lulu are friends - the stylish must stick together! These photos are amazing. And I love that I enjoy your blog both for the photos AND for what you write :)
1.Love the setting of the pics- they're way too awesome for words
2. LOVEING the white cut-out's from Aldo, I went in to see what they looked like in person, but no such luck finding them in my nearest store
3.Cute dress- I'm also VERY into yellow right now
4. SHOCKED you're selling the RL blazer, but good for you... it's selling for A LOT! ;)
These pictures are really lovely! I have that dress but it looks sooo much better on you, Ive never even worn mine!
I just wanted to say how nice it is to come back to your blog after a weekend of being away from it (prom, drunken stupor and a 2 day hangover--the only things that would keep me away) and have all these amazing posts to feast my eyes upon.
and the tree house is possibly the coolest tree house I've ever seen, and I once spent an hour in Borders reading a treehouse coffee table book
You and your backyard are gorgeous. :]
J'adore la deuxième photo ! Quelle belle verdure :)
La robe est so cute
See you then
Noémie
Wow, it seriously looks like I was flipping through a magazine, you are so amazingly lucky to be blessed with such lovely photo spots. Not to mention all the fun you must of had as a kid, that tree house is ridiculous!
Hey, so I was just wondering how often you do your laundry...I mean, you obviously wouldn't have to do it very often considering how much clothes you own, and personally I hate doing laundry, so how often do you actually get around to it?
I'm telling everyone I know that wears nail polish...
NAIL POLISH IS BAD! Did you know that there's so much toxins found in nail polish? Through BrandHabit.com, I found out that butterLONDON is doing this new thing where you turn in three bottles of nail polish and you get a free bottle of "3 Free", which doesn't have the bad toxins in other polishes.
For more information, visit: http://www.brandhabit.com/designer/5835-butterLONDON
It's definitely a good thing to look into. I mean, I have half-empty bottles of polish sitting at home. It's cool that I can turn them in and get a free bottle of nail polish.
JUST SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT, GALS!
the tree house is really charming and scary at the same time. i really love your take on this dress.
That's like the tree house from the movie Now and Then.
hey rumi
I lovelovelove your blog,
the dress is very cute!
I was wondering if you had any ideas on what to wear to a prom (something non cliche i.e. long and flowy)
I live in SF too and i need something effortlessly cool and unique..thats when i thought of you...
any ideas at all???
-Lea
p.s. Do you think a short black aa
dress would be to informal?
I love your Aldo shoes. When did you buy them? I looked on Aldo's website and could not find.
That's an amazing dress! I live in San Francisco, too, and I was wondering which stores you tend to go to?
wow, that is my childhood dream treehouse!!! gorgeous pics, love the dress!
Rumi- please tell me, where did you go to college?
xoxo
I love your backyard!! I thought you live in the city.
this lemon yellow is stunning om your skin tone!
I tried to buy this dress in yellow too, but it was all sold out so i had to buy it in white a million times too big and still haven't altered it :( Treehouses = Rad I ant to live in one when i grow up. All I need is a huge closet and I'm set ;)
That dress is absolute perfection and I really need it. Any chance you would ever sell it in your store?
All those pics are WOW, truely amazing! your dress is awsome, you zear the headband so well...
I'm in love with that treehouse, what a perfect place to grow up. I've always wanted to love in one to.
Sometimes, when I check your blog I feel like I'm checking an online fashion magazine. That's the same feeling I get with these too lovely for words photos, wow! Your backyard really is amazing and so is your dress!
OMG, what a lovely treehouse! Such a lovely garden. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pictures, they look like they belong in vouge.
I love these pics! They look like they came straight out of the urban outfitters catalog. :-)
That dress looks great on you. It makes your skin look perfect...even though it already is :)

Omg. this is such an amazing post. your photos are simply perfect, i'm pretty obsessed. the heels are gorgeous though.

I looooved this post. It took me back to a place I loved as a child - my grandma's backyard. How can you walk in those shoes?? I bought them, but had to return them cause all I could do was stand in front of the mirror and admire them....not walk LOL

Really trustworthy blog thanks.
