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!

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?
