Hello everyone! As we all know Easter is approaching, which means it’s time to bring out the pretty pastels. I’m a church going gal, so I like to find modest dresses that I can wear to church. I did not get a chance to take pictures of my own Easter outfit, which is why I used my pageant picture which I believe was around Easter time. I was doing face painting at the park for all the kids and it was a very fun day. The dress I’m wearing is from Champagne and Strawberry.
