one day at a time

I know.  I know.  I haven't posted a new outfit in forever!  But, as I've mentioned, some crazy stuff happened that turned my life upside down a bit.  My vintage store, tag, suffered an electrical fire on December 14th, which forced us to close while we worked to clean and rebuild.  Now, over 3 months later, I have learned how truly devestating an event like this is and how long it takes to recover.  So I continue to take one day at a time and just move forward in the hopes that one day soon it will all come together and we will be able to reopen our doors bigger and better than ever.  But until that day comes, I spend my days occupied with paperwork, and inventorying, and dealing with insurance and so on and so forth.  So needless to say, there hasn't been much time for dressing up and blogging out.  But I've missed it, and all of you, so I figured its about time I made the time....
Here's a look back at what I wore one day before all this beautiful weather came our way...
Wearing vintage western from tag*, cargo jacket and bag from Marshalls, Seven for All Mankind jeans, thrifted belt and hat, H&M ring, and boots from DSW.
Total cost of outfit: about $200

into this world we're thrown

Girl ya gotta love your man
Girl ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah

Yeah!

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm
-The Doors

Out and about earlier this month...
Wearing vintage tee from tag*, jbrand jeans, random sweater and cuff bracelet, thrifted hat, sunglasses I borrowed (indefinitely) from Jen, Marshalls bag, H&M ring, and DSW boots

There has been a lot going on in our lives and household lately.  My man and I have both been faced with challenges in our careers and professional lives.  With many obstacles in front of us, we continue to weather the storm and ride it out together.
The winds of change are in the air....
Happy Monday!!

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.
