thrifted threads: mellow yellow

it's another 'what i wore wednesday'
i'm linking up with lindsey for some fashion fun.

ian's favourite tree is blooming!!!
the flowering dogwoods are really putting on a show right now.
i was so inspired by their mellow yellows that 
dug through my closet to see if i had some.
this thrifted cardigan and top were from my working days.
they were thrifted finds from way way way back.
it feels good to put a freshly ironed shirt on- once every 10 years !!!
i was off to meet some special women for tea
so i thought i would emulate the mellow yellow dogwoods that i walk past everyday.

(i'll tell you more about the tea tomorrow.)
did you know that these yellow petals aren't actually petals at all?
the dogwood petals are modified leaves 
that surround a cluster of 20 tiny yellow flowers.
cool huh?
happy humpday everyone !!!
