that time i looked like i was going to woodstock...

do you ever wish that you would have been a certain age during a certain era or decade?  i do.  my pop and i have talked many times about how we wish we could have been about 25 in 1969 in bethel, new york.  woodstock.  i didn't intend to dress like i was headed there, but i think it looks like i'm ready to see joan baez.






























dress: vintage, thrifted // headband: i made it // clogs: vintage, from nicole // bracelets: vintage and SF street vendor

i found this dress at a thrift store about 5 or 6 years ago and knew i had struck gold.  i'll never let this go, and i'm just sad i haven't found others in the same style that fit perfectly with no alterations needed!  maybe this dress has been to woodstock so in a round about way i can say i was there... sort of.  what era do you wish you could have lived through or enjoyed, or just go back to and visit for a little while?

    Can I join you to see Joan perform? I sometimes think I belong in that time too. But then I would really love to be around for the woman's suffrage movement in the 1920. I just think I would have been one fierce lady fighting for my rights!

    Those clogs go perfectly with that dress! I love it! I would like to think that dress has been to Woodstock so yes, by default so have you. :)

    I always think I was born in the wrong time. I wish I was born in the late 40s, growing up in the 50s and seeing the 60s and 70s at a young age.

    Love the dress and the simple white with the brown shoes. Cute!

    I'm kind of glad you didn't live during that era and take that dress to Woodstock, because then it would have gotten all sorts of grass and dirt stains. It's such a beautiful treasure! I wish I was born during that age as well. It just seems like it would have been so damn interesting!
