summer vs. fall

vintage crochet top - estate sale
kimchi blue skirt - thrifted!!! (best thrift score eva!)
gold montego bay sandals - thrifted

One of my favorite things to do is pair two unexpected things. Like this vintage crochet top and the fancy bubble skirt. Old versus new. Casual versus dressy. Dull versus shiny. Rough versus smooth.

And SUMMER vs. FALL!!! It's crazy hot here, and I am ready to wear sweaters, and boots, and SCARVES!!!

But I digress... the crochet top is a nod to the coming fall season, while the skirt and sandals admit it's still summer. :)

I'm starting off this Labor Day weekend with going to see some art tonight. What are your plans?

a feather in her hair

The thing I'm looking at here in the photo is the weekend. It's not too far off. We'll be reunited soon.

Hey there! I haven't done an outfit post in a looong while. I'm hoping to get back in the swing of it!

silver linings

How a fender bender, a flat tire, and being shat on by a bird - all in the same week, mind you - totally impaired my ability to do an outfit post for a whole month is beyond me.

blouse : gap, thrifted
skirt : georges memmi paris, thrifted
belt : vintage, estate sale
shoes : sm new york, thrifted
thrift brag : total cost for this outfit - $10

But, and I'm sure totally unrelated, the pool is open.

And that means summer, folks.

And that is good enough for a silver lining in my book.

And an outfit post. ;)
