If there's one thing that makes me feel like I'm officially on vacation, it's being on a dock at a harbor with a row of million dollar yachts. None of the yachts are mine (not yet ;) one can always dream ), but it doesn't matter to me. The pretty, well taken care of boats gently rocking on the water remind me that I'm far away from my office. I'm far away from any dishes I need to wash, laundry I need to fold, or computer I need to work on. For now, all I need to do is not fall in the water. So far I've managed to stay on the dock.

I wore the Kate Stoltz Ruched Black Dress, a delicate crinkled silk chiffon and black lace dress with puffed lace sleeves. The dress is certainly a more dressy one than most would wear during the day, but the cut makes the silk and lace a little more wearable during the day. The dress sports a skirt that skims the ankle, floating above an underskirt of tulle that adds volume to what would otherwise be a rather flat skirt. The ruched lace on the bodice is captured in panels of silk chiffon with lace overlay.
