You could knock me down with a feather.....

Sometimes things just happen that we totally do not expect but they are such a huge surprise that we could be knocked down with a feather. That happened to me yesterday. But first, to go back a couple of months in time....

I was discussing my upcoming trip to the Thirty-One National Conference. We have one night that is an awards type evening where people get acknowledged for promoting up in their position. Most of conference is casual dress like capri's and 31 t-shirts. But that night is a big deal so we all dress up a little. 

I had shared with my friend Stevie that I needed to find me a dress. She recommended I wear a little black dress which, if you are from the South, you know you should own at least one little black dress. Well, I don't. I told Stevie it was a good idea and I needed to look for one. I have until the end of July so I haven't really started looking yet. 

Flash forward to the present.....

Stevie has been on vacation with her family in Tybee Island for two weeks. She took a day trip to Savannah and told me she bought me something while she was there. 

You guessed it....A LITTLE BLACK DRESS!

I. Was. Floored! I was thrilled. She has excellent taste and I couldn't wait to see it. And when I did see it I knew she had picked out the perfect dress. It is one I can dress up or dress down depending on the occasion. She even bought me a beautiful yellow necklace to compliment it and a pair of yellow earrings. All that is left is for me to find a pair of strappy cute sassy sandals to wear with it. 

It fit me perfect. I don't think I have ever owned a dress this cute that fit this perfect, like it was custom made. Thank you Stevie from the bottom of my heart for your sweet, sweet gift.
