Happy talk, keep talking happy talk
Talk about things you like to do
You got to have a dream, if you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?

For all my talk of muted colors and envy of women who look chic and pulled together in black there will always be a part of me that loves a really garish pattern. Something so bright and jazzy that just looking at it perks me up. When I saw this girl on Blog Sorbeta my first thought was "happy dress". I mean, is it possible to have a bad day while wearing this? From the collar to the pattern to the draw-string waist...everything comes together and defies you to not have fun while wearing it.
