same doorway, different day

A few weeks ago Jenna gave me a bag full of stuff she had cleaned out of her closet. I finally went through it yesterday and found a few pieces for my personal closet, and a few more to sell in the store. These pants are one of the items I kept for myself, and I just couldn't resist wearing them today! I had a lot of fun putting together my outfit this morning which just put me in a good mood :)
Wearing vintage trousers from Jen, vintage tank, earrings, and elephant belt buckle from tag*, Payless sandals, thrifted double-wrap belt, random bracelets, and F21 bag.
Total cost of outfit: about $45

Happy Thursday!

breezy sundays

I was digging in my closet Sunday morning trying to find a great breezy dress to wear for another day down at the shop. Came across this beauty and was thrilled because I had kind of forgotten about it. I love the nude color and hankerchief flowy skirt. Its such a fun dress to move around in, it follows you beautifully wherever you go :)

barefoot in the backyard

What a long, fun Saturday at the shop it was! I was exhausted by the time I got home, but my jumpsuit was too awesome not to have my man snap a quick picture before I traded in my vintage for my sweats.

And I think its gonna be a long long time...

She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine a.m.
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
Its lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

And I think its gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here all alone

-Rocket Man (Elton John)

What is it that I've said about bright colors and prints??? Oh, yeah, that I LOVE them!! And just to prove it, rocking yet another one of my crazy vintage outfits :)
I picked up this awesome crochet tank on my recent trip down the street to Avalon. So in love with the pattern and colors! Couldn't help but pair it with my super high waisted green polyester pants and rainbow striped wedges. And what goes better with all this madness than a huge pair of white Elton John-esque glasses?!
Vintage clothing is just entirely too much fun!
Wearing vintage tank from Avalon, vintage pants and sunglasses from tag*, estate sale ring, and Target wedges.
Total cost of outfit: about $65

yellow

Back in action after being out of town this weekend. My man and I headed to Hermann, Missouri to help two of my old friends celebrate their wedding...and, oh my gosh, was it a blast! Jenny and Tim (the newlyweds) started their courtship way back during our sophomore year in high school, so it was so much fun to see them standing at the front of the church exchanging wedding vows after all these years! A weekend filled with old friends, booze, dancing, and lots of love and laughter! Doesn't get much better than that :)
Mom picked me up this morning and we headed to the park for a few quick pics. Its FINALLY starting to feel like spring here in the STL, so I had to dress accordingly! And what says spring more than a vintage shirt with big yellow flowers splashed across it?!
Wearing J Brand jeans, vintage top from tag*, platform sandals from DSW, random jewelry, and my new favorite purse from Aldo!
Total cost of outfit: about $120

Mom and I are enjoying a beautiful day down here in The Loop! Got the door propped open, the music turned up, and getting (or at least attempting to get) lots done around the store! Off at 4 and heading home for an evening of grilling on our patio with my man!
Ah...Tuesday! Gotta love 'em!
