when it comes to my clothes, i'm incredibly plain. just throwing that out there. blouse - vintage from ebay years ago, cardigan - forever 21, jeans - i can't remember but they're my favorite pair, mocs - vintage minnetonka from mere trifles, turquoise ring - dinosaur toes. and of course micaela looked cute as always in a dress and heels (i swear, i need to start being more feminine).i can't show you all of what i got because most of the items are for someone else, but here's what is staying with me:
the fabric is completely awesome. it was in a box with some really unfortunate 70's stretch polyester fabric, and of course that did not come home with me. it has some staining, but i'm going to wash it, and if that doesn't get the stains out, i'll still use what i can for lining or pockets of tote bags. if i haven't already told you, i'm completely obsessed with old frames. if in the future you see me on an episode of hoarders, it will be because i've been buried alive by old frames. this one is simple, but i really liked it, and i have a large art print that i think is this size exactly. the arrowhead thing was the focal piece of a bolo tie, but since i don't wear bolo ties, i'm going to drill through the top so i can put it on a chain as a pendant. it was too awesome not to come home with me!last but not least, micaela and i are now engaged, so if you were thinking of asking for my hand (with the crooked fingers as you can so clearly see above), it's too late.
oh yeah, i almost forgot... i'm going to be emailing the winner of the ma cherie creations giveaway!
You are too adorable. I love your nail polish! Oh, and congrats on the engagement. ;)

ReplyDeleteyour vintage eyelet blouse is so intensely gorgeous. congrats on your engagement!!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of old frames in a home. I had them displayed for a while above my old French couch (R.I.P.)
ReplyDeletebut my always sarcastic stepdad made a funny/silly comment, you know, the kind that is meant to be sweet and nice but makes you feel so stupid? Yeah, they came down that night, ha!
I found your blog through Have a Cute Day and I love it! Looking forward to reading more.
