So this would be… four months late? Forgive me, Sage, EmilyRose, Celestina and the rest of you with birthdays in February. Or think of it this way: the presents are opened, the check from your grandma long since cashed, and yet there remained one unexpected gift!
… Yeah, maybe not. I’ll try to be a little more prompt next year… And I believe I still have January and April to catch up on, but technically Sylvia and Iris already got January and April dresses, so I thought that of the three choices, those months could wait. In any case, February’s birthstone is the amethyst and the birth flower is the primrose, so that led to today’s color choices. Also, trazy, I need to thank you for forcing me outside my comfort zone — that technique of light patterns on a dark background is not too hard (if the light part is done with a dark enough pencil that you can see it) and looks striking. Expect to see it show up a few more times until I get it out of my system!

Well, that was a short contest! To win the contest, someone had to guess one of the ten movies I rated the highest with movielens, and Sofia won already, with her guess of Casablanca. (The other nine: Whisper of the Heart, Vertigo, The Thin Man, Some Like It Hot, Robin Hood (Disney version), Porco Rosso, North by Northwest, Dr. Strangelove and All About Eve.) Congratulations Sofia!

  1. I absolutely love this dress! The light pattern on the dark backing is beautiful and turned out amazing!

    Purple is my favourite colour so I always love seeing purple dresses, its just a shame Im not born in February.

    Hmmmmm I have no idea, I’m terrible with movies.

  2. I wish I had been born in Februaru! Very nice!
    So, I’ll admit to having looked through your blog… but it’s not too much of a hint. I’ll go with ‘The Secret of Kells’.

  3. Beautiful dress! I’m so proud to be born in February right now. :)
    And since I’m already commenting, might as well venture a guess.
    Um . . . Wall-e?

  4. Sofia, you’ve got one of them! Congratulations! To everyone else, with the pointed exception of Brian, thanks for guessing :)

  5. EEEH! thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou! I’ve been trying to find one on this website, but they were all from the Boutique.

  6. I love this one! My sister and daughter both have Feb birthdays, tho my sister is not much of a dress person, but I think I’m going to print this off for my little girl. It’s just beautiful. Very nice.
