Lass

I may be more inclined towards kookier prints, but goodness, I do love a good tartan. Although I'm a bit of an ethnic mutt (in case you've ever wondered, I'm Polish, German, Swedish, Welsh, French, and possibly Scottish), I've always felt a connection to the Celtic nations and the UK. At least I can sort of pretend I'm from somewhere else in this skirt! I'd been wanting this colorway from British Retro for about a year, and I finally took the plunge. I originally wanted the dress, but since I've been embracing the idea of separates as of late, I went for the skirt instead. It's a bit longer than I'd like (I can't imagine how long it'd be on someone shorter than I), but I could always get it hemmed at a later date. Otherwise, it's a really high-quality piece that makes for a great addition to my fall and winter wardrobe. The skirt doesn't seem to be currently available, but there are other colorways too.

I have one more week of relative free time, and then things are going to get very busy again. I'm doing this lovely little play in mid-January (it goes up with just one week of rehearsals, which will be a fun challenge), and then I'll be going right into rehearsals for a children's theatre show. Although I sometimes complain, I find that I'm better off when I'm busy. When left to my own devices, I'm not anywhere near as productive. I guess hitting the ground running is a good way to start off the new year!
