Mango Summer 2012

***

Ivory looks so elegant, especially when worn head-to-toe. 

To me, such styles evoke the sophistication of the Edwardian era, when ladies favoured white dresses for their everyday look. I'm also reminded of Greek goddess gowns, Empire era dresses (better-known as Jane Austen's time), classic American tennis outfits, and men's linen suits, worn with matching ivory straw fedoras.

Mostly, ivory styles simply remind me of summer, the time of year when you just want to wear something light, and laze about in the shade.
