Happy 35th birthday to me! Here’s to my first outfit post in our new yard. I’m so excited to have an outdoor space now. It was a rather cold and miserable day (as often happens to us April birthday babies), so lots of wool was in order.
Unfortunately you can’t really tell that I dared to match up two different checked patterns, in my overalls and my blouse. But I think it worked. You’ll just have to take my word on that!
This is the patio area to the side of our garage. It needs a lot of work, but we have some ideas. The slightly dodgy and clearly long-enjoyed picnic table was left with the house and will become our first DIY project, as we plan to restore it soon so we can enjoy it for more years to come.
Outfit details: wool checked overalls from Jitterbuggin, boat shoes from Rocket Originals, wooden squirrel pin and checked blouse from Etsy, bakelite and another vintage plastic bangle from here or there, Irish sweater purchased on the Aran Islands.
I’ve been having a lovely day so far. I worked from home, Mel brought me an ice cream cake (my favorite), and we’re ordering pizza from a highly recommended (so I’ve read) pizza place in our new neighborhood that’s been around almost as long as our house has. Cheers to happy birthdays!
Happy birthday, Tasha! You look adorable! Glad you’re enjoying your day 🙂
Wonderful outfit and happy birthday 🙂 I love your shoes, they look SO comfortable.
What a smart little outfit! I had been eying those shoes on the Rocket Original site for a while, but I recently – and VERY sadly learned – that even their smallest size is way too big for my stupid dwarfy feet. I swear, I may chuck sewing and just going into being a cobbler so I can get some shoes that fit me.
Happy birthday!! Your outfit is perfect… I adore the overalls and those boat shoes, so cheerful and cute! Adorable pup too 😉
Happy Birthday!! Oh your shoes are the best!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! I love the overalls 🙂
Happy Birthday!!
Holy cow, I would have thought you were in your late twenties, at the most! Happy Birthday! As an April baby myself, I’m thankful that there isn’t any snow– knock on wood!
Happy Birthday! I love the shoes- thx for the shopping info! 🙂
Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday! We’re the same age! Just love your outfit!!
Happy birthday ! You are right, april has a funny way with weathertypes. Last year at Easter we had 28°C, and were in our bikinis on the beach. Today it’s 8°C and you can only get on the beach wearing warm scarfs en boots…. Anyway, enjoy every day as if it’s your birthday !
Congratulations! Your outfit and new yard look quite lovely. Had you not mentioned how cold it really was outside, I wouldn’t have known from the photos (all that thick, green grass)!
Happy Birthday! Its so great to have your own outdoor space isn’t it? looking forward to see how you renovate it! 🙂
Happy Birthday xx

Happiest of Birthdays! Ah…35 was a good year…I turned an ugly 37 last month. And us March babies experience that same dreary weather birthday too, even in Tennessee! I hope the pizza was delish and that your day was great. Love the patio, looking forward to more new home sneak peaks!
Happy Birthday! 😀
Love the outfit!
Happiest (slightly belated) birthday wishes, dear gal! Here’s to a year ahead that sparkles with everything – and more – that your heart desires and that is littered with tons of awesome vintage finds, too! 🙂
