Mani Monday

Today’s mani is inspired by the dirndl/apron combo I wore for Easter, featuring Sally Hansen Miracle Gel “Luck & Glory” (blue) with the “Unicorn” top coat and Holo Taco magnetic “Love Spell” (magenta). Both the mani and the outfit also go really well with my Erstwilder “Harvest of Health” Pysanky (Slavic decorated Easter eggs) brooch!

Sartorial Saturday…On a Sunday–A New Apron for Easter

I had such a fun time wearing “Heiligen Tracht” for Easter last year, I decided to do it again! I knew I wanted to wear my “Everyday Dirndl” from Rare Dirndl, because it’s such a beautiful shade of blue for spring, and when I saw that Rare Dirndl started offering their Embroidered Rosette Apron in a new medium length in addition to the mini version they already sold, I knew that I had to pair the magenta apron with the dirndl!

It’s an amazingly vibrant color, especially with the blue shining through, and the embroidery makes it feel extra fancy:

I feel like a beautifully colored Easter egg!

Of course I had to wear my flower crown again:

In addition to my standard edelweiss accessories (I even borrowed Bunny’s pink wrap bracelet), I also added an Erstwilder Pysanky egg brooch…I think it’s the first time I’ve worn a brooch with a dirndl, and it’s perfect both for the holiday and for my color scheme!

I’m so happy with how the whole look turned out!

I’m already planning on the next way I’m going to wear this apron…luckily, it will go well with two of my other dirndls!
