Outfit Details: Dress: Vintage//Cardi: Grandfather's//Brooch: Antique Marketplace//Hat & Shoes: UO//Black sweater tights: Hue, gift - thanks Mom for keeping me warm:)
I'm home from the holidays darlings as I'm sure most of you are by now too. It's kind of sweetastic to be back into the swing of every day life and not be living out of a suitcase. Though while away, I was lucky enough to score this interesting little 80s tunic jacket thing while out vintage shopping and thought it would be kind of perfect repurposed as a short dress. Nothing more to say than that the plaid sailor style collar drew me in like nobody's business.
My New Year's resies have gotten off to a swift start as I cooked something new this week - homemade ham & bean soup, mmm mmm good...and got back into my exercise routine. Fingers crossed it will last. That's about all for now...my little man is backing up onto my lap and asking me to "read":) Life has so quickly become about cars, trains, and Dr. Seuss and I wouldn't have it anyone other way.
Love bunches,

Ham and Bean soup sounds delicious! I love your outfit of course, especially those heels! You sure know how to do a pop of colour! :) xx
ReplyDeleteThat is cute! I love the colour! :) Dr.Seuss has some of the best quotes, my favourite being, those who care don't matter and those that matter don't care! Couldn't be more true! Who care's what the mean people think! :) So long as my fella and a few true friends think I'm all good, then that's fine! :) All other nice comments are a bonus and any mean comments can get lost! haha! I'm glad to see your new year is going your way so far! :) xxx
