Pearl and I walked over to Hawthorne today and I found the summer sandals of my dreams on clearance at Imelda’s!

I also snapped up this awesome vintage paneled maxi-skirt that I want to make into a dress, at House. Love the animals in the print, kind of like Lilly Pulitzer but even more so.

And I cut out the pieces for the Retro Shift Dress from Chic & Simple Sewing during naptime! The fabric is also a Hawthorne find, but from a few months ago — I got it at Cool Cottons.

Hopefully a naptime or two from now I will be wearing it with my new sandals… and a few naptimes after that, I’ll have another new dress for good measure!
