Summer samba

I got this dress for a ridiculous sum for a "Brazilian party" we planned to organize with a friend. However, I arrived to Slovakia in July and all potential guests were away. So we just made a party for two. That was like the only time I wore that dress - love the lime / blue combo, but even I wouldn't wear anything this short in public! This picture shows me in my friend's parents' garden reading the then new fifth installment of Harry Potter.

As years went by, I planned to do the Brazilian party and kept getting dresses, accessories, kitchen utensils and such - but it never happened. So today it's an urban legend and "at the Brazillian party" serves as a synonym for "when pigs fly". :-)

BTW my English journalling is longer than my Slovak one, because most of what I talk about here is a given fact for those who know me - but not so for the "outside" world. :-)

I have to say one more thing - I always admired Kara's LOs with big white titles using Heather's alpha, and I knew I had to try myself one day. So this is not exactly a scraplift, but the title was inspired by Kara's layouts.

Inspired by October Challenge # 25 (Something Old/Something New) - outfits in my case.

Your blending on here is amazing - what a fabulous LO! I love the dress, too! :)
 
Perfect page, I feel like it's summer again :) Perfect blending (like you do) and it reminds me your collection of early CD covers (Enya, Moya Brennan - you know what I mean). This dress really suits you :) LOL, and I had to laugh reading your English journaling :D
 
Yeah I noticed that's a lot of English journaling for such little, um, non-English (lol) journaling on your page. LOL Adorable page, great journaling, and love the colors of that dress!
 
Love the tropicalness of this LO! Your dress is gorgeous and I love the flowers you used on the page! Great job!
 
I love how the photo is the main focus and you built the LO around it! Very pretty!
