Let me just start by saying that this outfit was a huge hit with Ivan's Dad & Grandma. I wore it when we went there last week when we visited them and Ivan's Dad said I looked like I was from the 50's (yes please, I will always accept that compliment) and Ivan's Grandma was very interested in my skirt and even more impressed when I told her that it was second-hand.
I love how green our grass is getting! I never fully realize how much Winter bums me out until Spring really begins. This year I have become very aware of the trees and flowers blooming and I blame home ownership. I find myself checking out people's trees and garden's like the nosiest nosy person ever. I wonder if they see me staring at their house and wonder what the heck I'm so interested in. Well it's either their garden or their home decor. I am also a major window peeker especially if we are walking around at night. This is why I always close our curtains when it gets dark out. I don't want to be peeped on while I'm having an after dinner dance party in the living room!
Anyways...back on topic. I am pretty in love with my necklace and you should definitely pop by in a few hours if you are interested in winning one for yourself! The length is just perfect and the colour makes me very happy.

those pleats are just right.
ReplyDeleteI am totally an evening window peeker too. My husband doesn't understand why I am so anal about closing the blinds at dusk but he doesn't know what kind of people are out there! lol
Soo vintage!! I love it (: can I have those shoes?! ;)
ReplyDeleteReally cute. I am definitely a major window peeker. I probably shouldn't be allowed to drive at night because of how often I look away from the road to peer into people's living rooms. :/
ReplyDeleteThat is a really cool necklace! I will definitely have to stop by later :)

That skirt is the most delightful colour, I love it! x
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit and can't wait to stop by after work to enter the giveaway. And I'm totally a peeper too when it comes to peoples yards and such. I'm an apartment dweller so no yard for me yet. I like to get ideas :)
ReplyDeleteI love your glasses, I think those should be the factor to get you the compliment of wearing vintage! But again this whole outfit is 50s so you are vintage all over :) I love it. Of course the necklace is gorgeous.
