Polka Dots + Bows

ouges dress

It's still very snowy in Rochester, so I'm glad I had a chance to take these photos a few weeks back (during an unseasonably warm spell). This is the other dress I received from OUGES (you can find my review of another piece from them here), and it's so comfy and cute. Plus, it's much more versatile than a lot of the other dresses in my closet. I'm sure I'll be styling it in lots of other ways in the future, but for this post, I decided to go with a classic red.

I'm so impatient for spring to arrive (and for the snow to melt). I want to wear all the florals and spend time outside! Is it already springy where you are? Living vicariously may be my only option for now.

Have a great start to your week!

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...
