A Surprise Visit

On the way thrifting today Jonny and I stopped at this fantastic watermill. It was built in 1902!

While standing taking pictures I discovered we had a surprise visitor...

Isn't he the cutest?! He didn't even move when Jonny took pictures of him. Probably because he was scared for his life, lol! Maybe next time I'll see him again.

Dress: 40s ebay
Sweater: Forever 21
Shoes: Anthropologie
Bag: 30s, my Mom gave it to me

    Good thing you didn't have to kiss it since you already have a prince of your own :D (even though the frog was quite adorable too...)

    Love the buttons on your dress! I have this thing for buttons.
