Maybe it's all the stories we're getting inundated with regarding the Queen's dinner at the White House (am I the only one who feels sorry for anyone who has to consume the pea and lavender soup?)...possibly it's the traditional, but still fun, combination of red, white and blue ...or it could be my irrational fascination with ruffles...

Whatever the reason, (minus the hat) I adore this picture from facehunter. I'd like to think that she was caught on her way out to go and play croquet. Once again, not sure why, I'm just getting an "I'm going to look cool in a 60's kind of way while I wield my mallet" kind of vibe.
