Purple Plaid

Finding a cute vintage dress in my size is always a treat. I love a good plaid, especially in a colorway like this, and any vintage dress with oversized pockets and a matching belt automatically has me swooning. I usually like my skirts to be a little fuller, but I think this will be a great summertime go-to. This dress also provided the perfect backdrop for this adorable sparkly heart brooch from Match Accessories – which I've been wanting to show off forever, but I never had the right dress for it. Is it weird I feel sort of accomplished when I finally put together the perfect apparel pairing?

In other news, I'm slowly getting settled into my new routine and surroundings. So is Pumpkin, though I feel incredibly guilty leaving her alone all day while I'm at work. She's used to being around people most of the time (since both my parents and I were working from home), and I know it can't be easy for her to adjust to all of these changes. It's not easy for me either, but I'm sure it's more confusing for a little kitty cat. I know things will sort themselves out in good time... but patience is not a virtue I often possess, truth be told. Just another thing I need to work on...
