Pattern Mixing with Polka Dots & Vintage

lisa from lala faux bois

Wow- it's been awhile! Although breaks are nice and totally necessary, there's something comforting about getting back into routines (and swapping clothes!). 

I borrowed this dress from Elana last month, although this may not look like December for most of you. It was a warm but breezy day and this dress definitely had some good twirling power with the wind. I didn't have anywhere special to wear this wonderful vintage dress, but sometimes an ordinary day can be made more fun with the perfect dress, polka dots, and a peter pan collar. And it's nice to balance out the occasional day spent working from home in leggings and a sweatshirt ;)





vintage dress: borrowed from Elana
top: Buffalo Exchange
vintage shoes: thrifted

Elana looked cute as can be wearing this dress to a wedding, and it looks like I took some cues from her with the low-heeled black shoes :)

  3. I really like how the Buffalo Exchange polka dot top with its black Peter Pan collar looks paired with that yellow print vintage dress. The length of the top worked out perfectly allowing the pretty yellow bow on the dress to show. The dress moves beautifully.
