Thrifted skirt and top, flower crown made by my friend Tiara, Rubi shoes, bracelets c/o Oasap

Hello everybody!! Oh my goodness, you have no idea how good it is to be back blogging again. I am on holidays for the next couple of weeks and have been loving every minute of it so far. Last week was so stressful and crazy but overall I am so proud of myself for pulling through and doing my best to dedicate even time to all of my subjects. I struggle with time management so I was really pleased with how well l I did this term - especially with History (my favourite subject).
The holidays have been very blissful thus far; I've been basking in the winter sun on outings with my family, making flower crowns, planning sleepovers with friends (expect a post with Lauren again soon!), painting my nails in all sorts of snazzy patterns, and not doing school work. It's marvellous!

Anyway, onto the outfit! I know that as a fashion blogger, usually you would post outfits that you've worn out before etc. but I think sometimes it can be a lot of fun to wear something slightly more impractical just because it creates a certain theme to your photos. I love this outfit so much - although I probably wouldn't wear it anywhere (unless it were a particular occasion), it's such a beautiful, classic combination. I'm so excited about how these photos turned out! They're so dreamy!
I hope you guys had a really wonderful weekend and have a great week ahead! It's so good to be back and I love ya'll so much! Oh, and I made a video just recently featuring the beautiful pressies Hannah sent me. Check it out here.
P.S: If you guys have any post suggestions, please email me or comment below. I'd love to hear them!

Gorgeous post Maria! I love this outfit, it reminds me of Anne of Green Gables, in a good way of course :). You could wear this to a tea party or somewhere fancy. Sometimes Britney & I dress fancy to Uni just because we can & it's fun!

Yay for being on holidays! I'm on summer break right now, and it is so nice to be able to forget about school just for a little bit! I love this outfit, your floral crown is amazing!

So lovely, and you're right - downright dreamy! I often feel the same way when I wear a big floral crown for photos... it's too fanciful to wear anywhere and not feel strange. But you look beautiful! :)
