Gingham seems to be “in,” but my own fascination with it is really due to the fact that it makes me feel like a fairy-tale character. Looking like a walking picnic blanket probably just means that I need to have picnics nigh-constantly, right?

This shell necklace doesn’t entirely match with the dainty gingham, but the colors are complementary enough for me to take full advantage of this rare opportunity to show it off.

You might notice that these colors also match excellently with my mousemoth pin, that little enamel cutie who has quickly become part of nearly every outfit I wear!

On another note, I will really miss these lovely flowers when they blow away as May comes to a close! Whatever will I do without my pastel photo backdrop?
