{milly}

I loooove this Milly dress from the new collection!  The purple/brown collection didn't do a lot for me, so I'm glad to see a new direction for Spring & Summer.  Milly and aqua blue--two of my favorite things--can't wait to see it in real life.  


In the April issue of my favorite home magazine, Traditional Home, there is a surprise article about Michelle Smith, the designer of the Milly line.  On the second page of the article she is wearing the aqua dress!  Click to enlarge!




BTW--I also noticed that Saks has my favorite Milly jacket (below) on clearance right now.  It would be a great buy for next winter.  I was surprised that I got a lot of use out of it this Fall and Winter & definitely had fun with it!

I really like Milly too. I just got an email from Nordstrom this morning that their new Milly and Tory Burch collections are in :)

I have one Milly dress and I love it...I need to bring it out of hiding now that it is spring!!! Thanks for reminding me. I love the dress...very pretty color and I bet you look great in it!

Petunia! The dress I purchased for the impending wedding is a Milly! I considered the halter that Michelle Smith has on the in first photo of her, but I ended up opting for a brown jersey on sale. I haven't tried it on yet, so the jury's still out (it's being shipped). But it would look so great with those Hyper Prive Louboutins! haha!

I can always count on Milly having great designs when I need a pretty dress! Thanks for sharing that article, too.

Milly is by far hands down my favorite. I have several Milly pieces and love every one of them!! We must be long lost sisters because I also own the faux fur jacket you have on in your pic! I also adore the aqua dress and I'm crossing my fingers that we get it in at the boutique so I won't have to pay full price :)
