When Irish Eyes are Blinded

I saw this dress in a shop window last year, and I had to have it. It was just what I needed to quench my thirst for colour. 

Yesterday, in honour of Saint Patrick's Day, I paired it with a very green cardigan and black accessories. I knew it was a bright outfit when I looked in the mirror, but it wasn't until I saw the photos that I realized how blinding it was. What a difference daylight makes! In fact, the ensemble might have been a bit too loud for my line of work.  I did get a couple of compliments from the Celtic contingent, so it wasn't all bad.

Hope you all had a lovely, bright, green weekend.
