Just like September, October has literally flown by. The Fall and Summer always seem to be the quickest seasons for me- then Spring and Winter just sort of slug on by- really, really slowly- haha. I'm a little sad, honestly. I love October, and this one in particular has been just perfect. Not only has we finally gotten our beloved Fall weather this month, but I feel like life is finally picking up a bit. I say that mostly because I was in a "I have no life" funk this past September ( September was kind of rotten ;) haha. But October has pulled me back into a happier state I suppose.
Onto more cheerful subjects, I was once again surprised to find these purple flowers at our shoot location- ironically they happened to match with the florals on my dress. I always think it's funny how that happens! This dress is actually really different than anything I've owned before because the material is like a suede, but softer and lighter. I found it at a shop called, Thriftage. As you can probably tell from the shop title, Thriftage specializes in vintage and thrifted finds. You can really see shop owner, Kirsten's passion for vintage in her attention to detail and quality inventory.

Another thing that made October amazing was being chosen as Vivi Girl Shop's Blogger of the Month! It came as such a surprise. You can read the feature here until the end of October :) They also sent me this little Tarina Tarantino necklace, which I thought would go great with this outfit because of the warm colors. If you haven't been by Vivi Girl Shop- do check it out! They carry clothes and accessories from a bunch of awesome designers like Orla Kiely and Dear Creatures to name a few.
