The power of paisley

I was approached in the T the other day by a woman who liked my dress - not one of my creations, unfortunately, but a green, Pucci-esque paisley number I picked up in a vintage shop in New Zealand. So we got to talking and it turns out she runs a blog devoted to documenting Boston fashion, the really quite awesome Beyond Boston Chic, and she asked to snap my picture to put up on her website.

Pretty sweet, right? (And who knew there were actually so many stylish Bostonians? Where are you guys hiding and why aren't we having the most stylish pajama party ever? I'll host!)

A couple days later I'm poking around on Boston.com and lo and behold, there's an article about Beyond Boston Chic, and guess whose picture was chosen to illustrate it? Wow. I know it's a pretty notice-me dress, but I wasn't expecting this much!
