What I Wore

Can I start this post by telling you about my long-held obsession with what I call the “Lorelai Gilmore dresses?” Somewhere around season 5, Lorelai starts wearing stunning dress after stunning dress to work at the new Dragonfly Inn. They are fitted knee-length dresses with 3/4 length sleeves, and usually an overlapping v-neck. I was a jeans and tee shirt college girl when those later seasons aired—but I’ve always held on to how wonderful I think those Lorelai dresses look!

Last fall, I was rewatching some G.G. episodes on Netflix when I mentioned the Lorelai dress to Steve. A few weeks later, he came home with this pink and black Aztec-patterned beauty. He had gone to a wedding out of town and secretly searched the clearance section at Target on his way home :)

  8. I'm watching Gilmore Girls for the first time (finally on the last season), and this dress immediately reminded me of Lorelai before I even started reading. :) Good job to your hubby for picking this out! Looks great on you!
