Last Day of School...


I meant to post this last week, but with all the holiday craziness, I am now just getting around to sharing this. Last week was my last class for my last fall undergrad semester (I graduate in May!!!!!). I was itching to wear one of my new dresses that I acquired at the farmhouse estate sale. This lady made SEVERAL of these dresses in the same style. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the pattern for this style among her stash of SEVERAL patterns. I ended up buying three of these, the only three left that were in good, wearable condition. The others had been patched and worn with lots of love. I can just picture this lady wearing one of these dresses while feeding the chickens. The other two dresses have ties in the back and for some reason, this one did not. All of the other dresses there had the ties as well. Maybe she forgot to sew them in? Anyways, when I saw this dress at the sale, I knew I had the perfect belt and shoes to match at home. I also just loved the print of the fabric. All this lady's dresses were made out of the cutest fabrics!!

I love your blog! I just missed buying a wonderful black velvet coat that reached to my ankles. It looked very Victorian. Due to money concerns, I put off buying it, but now I'm kicking myself. I hope whoever has it, enjoys it as much as I would have.

A belated Happy Birthday to Pumpkin! That's one cute puppy.

This outfit is darling. I love the combination of the gray sweater with that dress. Only one semester to go!
