Snowy Days; Starry Nights

Snow, snow, snow.  We've had a nice little dusting of snow here and a few snow days to go along with it.  After dashing out to get some photos in this lovely, fresh snow, I've mostly been indoors with the fam keeping warm. 

As soon as I heard that there would be snow in the forecast, I knew I'd be photographing this dress as well as getting a head start on my Christmas outfits for this year.  I know, it's a bit early to be thinking of Christmas, I just got my tree put away a few days ago, but snow in December is a rarity here, so I thought I may as well take advantage, especially since while my tree has been put away, my Christmas outfits are still waiting to go into storage and were quite handy when I was getting ready this morning.

I wasn't such a fan of the Van Gogh prints on these Selkie Tea Rose dresses initially.  I'm not exactly sure why, but they just didn't speak to me until a few months ago and then suddenly I loved them and had to have them.  I bought both of my Van Gogh dresses second hand, and I saved a little bit but not much.  I didn't mind, I was too smitten.

Thanks to the holidays and a couple of Royal Mail postal strikes, it took about 6-8 weeks for this dress to arrive, but it was worth the wait and I've already got the perfect pair of VIVAIA flats to wear with it, as soon as this snow melts so that you can actually see my feet.

While the snow lasts, I am enjoying this beautiful winter wonderland out my window.  The window, I might add which is clear and has my vintage arm chair returned to its proper place next to it since I finally got the Christmas tree down.

So, on this first official snow day, once the photos were done, I curled up with a cup of tea to enjoy the scenery from my chair and then, since we were already in a lulled state, we watched an archaeology documentary, which is pretty interesting when you have nothing else to do and nowhere else to go.  I call this snow day a win.
