This April, I’m giving away something I had only coveted up until yesterday… You see, when you work with brides and bridesmaids wearing pretty robes every weekend, you can’t help but think, “Why don’t I have a robe like that?” Melodramatic, I know :) Well, I decided to get me one! But not just any one. A knee-length, kimono style cotton voile robe from Plum Pretty Sugar! Mine is the Beckoning Creatures pattern, and I am in LOVE with how much it reminds me of spring!
