If gingham is the print of summer, then plaid reigns supreme in autumn and winter. At least in my wardrobe. While oftentimes it's rendered cozy in flannels for colder weather, I also love an elegant plaid dress made for parties like this one. It's a perfect retro cut with nipped in waist, full skirt, and the best detail of all--pockets! Sleeves might make it a bit more appropriate for the current temperatures, but I'm not one to quibble over little details like that...although I am fully bundled up now since I'm suffering from the typical winter cold! Everything is starting to look and feel quite festive in these parts. I went to a Winter Ball last week, Christmas markets are starting, and this week is our village's tree lighting ceremony. I do love this season of twinkle lights, presents, and gingerbread.
