Wrapped and Ruffled

May 17, 2018

Today is the big day and I can hardly contain my excitement! We are flying home to Virginia tonight for a month-long vacation! We moved to Amman last April, so it’s been over a year since we’ve been back to the States. This trip is extra special because it will be the first time my dad and my in-laws meet Lila. Only my mom has seen her since she came over to Jordan for Lila’s birth. I have a feeling happy tears are going to be shed all around when they lay eyes on her. My husband and I are a little nervous about the long journey ahead of us (we have a 4 hour flight to Germany and then a 9 hour flight from there to Virginia), but we’re keeping our fingers crossed that Lila sleeps for the majority. Say a little prayer for us, please!

I don’t get dressed up too often anymore but when I find something like this wrap dress, it’s worth the effort. Of course I adore the stripes, but the ruffled hem really sold me, and it’s so pretty when it flutters as you walk. Believe it or not, the price tag is under $25!Thanks so much for stopping by today! The next post I share will be from Virginia—see you guys next week!
