Christmas Cactus

I wore a cactus print the other day, my white dress with the yellow bow at the neck, and a woman commented and said, "I just don't agree with that.  It's the wrong season for that print."  I laughed and said, "You know sometimes you've just got to go for it.  You've got to reach out, grab a piece of summer and bring it with you through the cold moths."  She laughed too and I think this little incident has been an ice breaker for us, because even though I see her regularly, we've never really connected.  Now, I think we're becoming pals.  Personal anecdote aside, if you've read my blog for more than a week or two, you already know about my love of cactus prints, but she wasn't wrong about the colors being a very summery mix.  So, I determined right then and there to create a Christmas-y cactus look and I'm pretty happy with the outcome.
