a little bit hippie

a little forewarning: for some reason i couldn't manage to take a single normal picture!  sometimes i just really, really don't want to be serious.  i won this dress on ebay a while back, and after seeing the pictures, i think i am going to go ahead and shorten it a few inches, but aside from the length, this dress encompasses all of my favorite things in a dress: it's from the 70's, it's off-white, it has crochet detail.  so basically what i'm saying is - put me in a VW bus on my way to san francisco and i'll be a happy girl.
































 dress: vintage, ebay // bag: vintage, purchased at an SPCA yard sale (because i love helping animals!) // sandals: kork-ease via ebay // jewelry: vintage, from grandma's jewelry box

and as if my vintage outfit wasn't making me feel 70's enough, i had the three best songs ever recorded in the history of music on repeat - this one, this one, and this one.  well, i actually have them on repeat pretty much every day, but it just added to the theme of the day.

so how was your weekend?  and are you doing anything for labor day?  i am - cleaning out the bathroom closet.  fun, fun!

    So cute! I think shortening the dress just a tad would be perfect!
    I'm avoiding cleaning this weekend at all costs!! I'm home from college for the weekend, but I have to drive back this afternoon. Wah :(
    Have a good day, pretty lady!!

    Gorgeous dress! I love the flutter sleeves and gauze cotton material. Such a cool feminine 70s vibe.

    I love that dress! How fun! No cleaning for me today (even though it needs it desperately and my stay at home husband will no longer be at home come tomorrow when he starts his doctoral classes). WE are going to the winery instead! :-) Happy Labor day!

    i very much LOVE the sound of you coming here in a vw bus and seeing me! what a wonderful gesture :D but seriously you should do that and maybe pick up a few fellow ladies on the way and we could make a party out of it, 70's style! love the dress on you and yup, pretty much any lace/crochet detail, im pretty much hooked.
