My Style Diary - A Schoolgirl/Retro Mix

Hello :)

This is a dress I picked up while I was in Malaysia and I can't decided if I feel like a 1950's housewife or a school girl when I wear it!

 Even though it does feel a tad like a  school uniform, I really love the plaid fabric, and the colours feel lovely and fresh. 

Another thing that drew me to this dress is the slightly vintage feel - my friend said it looked like I should be sitting in a 1950's diner sipping a milkshake... 

*drifts off into a little daydream*

Anyway, it felt like a very appropriate dress to be wearing for a lovely afternoon spent in the Swan Valley, enjoying tea and scones at the Cottage Tea Rooms.

This was the first time I'd been there, and it is the sweetest little place. I'd definitely recommend it if you ever have the chance to go. They serve High Tea, so I'm hoping to get a group of my friends together for a girlie day out at some point. :)

Hope you're having a fab Saturday!
