Floral Yellow/White/Grey Dress with Belt

The beginning of Septmeber, two college friends got married (to each other) and their reception was on his grandparents beautiful farm.

I decided to make a dress out of some floral fabric I had bought on a whim a couple months ago (good thing I bought enough). I thought the colors and design were perfect for their theme of the wedding. Although I don't usually go for big prints, I was drawn to the colors and how it isn't a dramatic big print (at least not in my eyes). I think it was on sale too, so that helps.
That pattern I used is one of my favorites, a Cynthia Rowley. I love that pockets were incorporated into the design and that you had an option to use a zipper or just create a keyhole in the back.

I figure I should add a picture of me wearing it, since my last post had one. Might as well show it as I wear it :)
