mad hatter

A closer look...
It was a cold rainy day yesterday and we were out of time, so just did a quick doorway picture...
Wearing F21 sweater, Marshalls skirt, DSW boots, thrifted vintage hat, vintage belt and bracelets from tag*, and the purse is an old street fair find from a trip to Colorado years ago.
Total cost of outfit: about $100
*tag - Timeless Authentic Garments - my vintage shop in The Loop, University City, Missouri
On this Thanksgiving Eve I would like to take a moment to share a few things for which I am truly truly thankful...
-All of my amazing customers who sometimes just pop into the store to say hi
-Getting to be surrounded by tons of beautiful and fun vintage pieces every day
-Terri, who is hands-down the most selfless, helpful, thoughtful mom around. I don't know what the store or I would do without her
-Having the priveledge to come home every night to a wonderful handsome man who takes such good care of me and our family
-Jenna, Kevin, Mary, Liz, Daniel, Jarrett, Tiffany and Becky...some of the best friends (and cousin) a girl could have
-Snuggling with the two best dogs ever - Jackson, with his wiggly butt, and Micah with her stinky attitude never fail to make me laugh. There's nothing like the unconditional love of a dog.
-My new tea kettle that whistles for me every morning
-The abundance of personal fashion blogs out there that occupy way too much of my time but always keep me inspired
-My hat collection - if you follow this blog then you know how I feel about hats
-To be celebrating my 29th birthday next week! Ready to enjoy the last year of my 20s and looking forward to what the next decade will bring...
And what are you thankful for?!
Wishing everyone a safe and wonderful holiday filled with lots of good food, friends and family.
xoxo

finally gave in


I know its been awhile and Im sorry for that. Life has been really busy and lots of working without time off so I was kind of rundown and uninspired. But I feel like Ive got my mojo back. Not the best picture, but trying out my new fancy phone! I finally gave in and joined the age of technology.
Wearing thrifted crochet dress, vintage slip, F21 jacket, DSW boots and old hat**
Total cost of outfit - about $80
** This hat is the first fedora I ever bought. Got it during my time living and going to school in New York. I havent worn it in years but was drawn to it today.
Happy Wednesday!
