What's New

I have a thing for rompers and more specifically, rompers that are 40's inspired. This one from ModCloth is a dream and will look quite lovely with my navy Seychelles platforms!




Even though I'm on the hunt for black sandals, these MIA Newport wedges were screaming my name and I couldn't resist their siren call. Luckily, I bought the last pair in my size at Endless.



I have one more exciting item arriving this week. Let's hope it works out as well as these two!

XOXO

What's New

I stopped by Target and bought a few new things...

A black hat that I plan on wearing three different ways.
1) Brim Up...



2) Front Brim Down...



3) Brim Down...



Hahaha, I look like a Sure commercial...do you remember?!

Also, I couldn't resist the sleepwear from the Liberty of London for Target collection. I always feel a bit guilty spending money on things I sleep in, and I feel like I should keep only one, but I love them both. What do you think? Should I keep one or both?









Here's a vintage straw camera bag that I bought on eBay...



And finally, here's an old watch from my childhood that I found at my parent's. I love its dainty face.



A special Giveaway tomorrow!!!

What's New

The Salvation Army was having a huge sale this past Saturday, so I had to make a stop. While I didn't hit the jackpot, I did find some excellent hidden treasures. Aside from the vintage high waist khakis I posted yesterday, I also bought a vintage navy sweater with white knot buttons, vintage navy high waist shorts, and two vintage wooden tennis rackets!





There is an increasingly odd pattern developing in my thrifting habits. I seem to be buying pieces that recreate my old school uniform!
Now I would like you to look into the faces of mischief!







Don't let their innocent expressions fool you, they are all trouble looking for a place to happen.



Only two more days of dog sitting left- then Cole, Wellie, Pip and I are heading home!
Oh, and I almost forgot! Yesterday, Wellie and I were featured on Chictopia's front page! This is the second time I've been on their front page. Sadly, last time I found out the day after I was up there and my photo was already replaced. Either way, Thank You So Much Chictopia!




XOXO

Ha, I'm making a weird face. My sister-in-law bought this hat in Russia years ago on her high school study abroad:





Commissioned header for Rachael, of softspoken:



Commissioned dog portrait:



I haven't heard this song in over ten years. It was playing in our favorite Ann Arbor restaurant last night and I suddenly remembered how much I loved it:

New Shoes

Well, I'm finally back at my place. Cole and I had a wonderful time with my mom, but she kept me quite busy with holiday shopping and baking!! However, she was sweet enough to hand me down two pairs of her old shoes.

Vintage saddle shoes from mom's closet:
Old hiking boots also from mom:
And while shopping at DSW, I found a wonderful pair of Crown Vintage pixie boots on clearance:

Now, I hope to catch up on all your lovely blogs!!!

XOXO

Random Tuesdays

Inspired by an article in Teen Vogue, I decided to try my hand at 80's makeup, but with a more wearable everyday look in mind. I probably need more blush and bigger hair to look truly 80's:








I was tagged by the wonderful Libs, of Not Here to Please You, to find black things in my bedroom. Little did Libs know that my whole room (and apartment) is decorated in black and white, so I'll just show you a few things.

Black headboard, frames, drawings and quilt:




Black and white portrait of my great grandfather as a little boy:




Now, this little bear isn't black, but I had to show him to you. He's a Christmas ornament:



And last, I added a new item to my shop- hand drawn bow tote bag:




Thank so very much for all the lovely comments on yesterday's look!! I'm glad you liked it.

P.S. Holiday Look #2 is tomorrow!!
