The simple black belt looks great with the dress -- and I like the necklace, both in design/appearance and that it helps sustain employment for the women making it. So cool that you brought in another cause to your own benefit project!

Guess I'm just too old to appreciate the look. Bicycle shorts only work for a "litle girl" look. Who wants that? However, love your hair and the necklace.
