looking like a vermilion bucks

I like words. I'm a word geek. That's part of the reason I majored in journalism. So when I saw that another word for the reddish-orange color of this dress is vermilion, I could hardly contain my excitement--mainly because I was having a hard time coming up with a title for today's post prior to discovering the word 'vermilion.'



This bright little number is another penny-pinching purchase that I picked up at the local Goodwill. It was a bit long so I had it altered.



I added some leopard-print pumps (which were the last pair the store had in my size), and accessorized with gold necklaces, a gold belt, and a chunky ring.
