I have been experimenting with the technique of overexposing my images to achieve this milky, washed out effect with soft focus and a foggy feel to it. In this image (original was properly exposed and taken in the RAW format) I have tweaked the exposure slider in the Camera Raw app by moving it way over to the right and then adjusted the Temperature and the Tint sliders to get the colors I wanted.

For the original shot I have used the following settings:
I used Nikkor 1.4D 50mm lens for the entire series which you can see on my flickr site

Exposure: 1/100
Aperture: f/4.5
