Hello friends! :D Happy Monday! The weekend flew by way to fast for me, what about ya'll? I wore this pretty high-low dress by Lilla P to church on Sunday. I love the speckled blue and orange print, and the overall light blue color is just perfect for spring! One of my favorite accessories to add to any outfit is a belt, and I love adding a belt to dresses. I have a slew of vintage options that always helps me jazz up any outfit. Vintage acccessories in general are a great way to transform any look. They add character to any outfit and can give you a unique yet on-trend look. Not to mention, most of the vintage accessorries I own (including my designer pieces) are a fraction of the cost of department store pieces! I'm talking less than $10 a pop! Now, what's better than having a unique piece that no one else has AND it being super cheap? And P.S. Yes, I'm wearing gold and silver necklaces together! I've never followed that rule that you can't mix gold with silver. ;)

Green Kick...

Hello dahhhlings! :) TGIF!!

I am SO excited for tomorrow [Saturday], as my hubby and I will be throwing our house warming party. It's going to be so fun! We have quite a few guests coming...and I'll be making some yummy appetizers. Please stay tuned for some pics!

As for today's post...I've been on a green kick lately. I've realized a lot of my newest additions to the closet are green. Which, makes me smile from ear to ear, as green is my fave color on earth. But seriously...with the military inspiration and the vintage-inspired looks out there I've had new jackets, cargos, skirts, purses, and shorts all green. These pair of shorts aren't military, but they are vintage [which, as you know is my fave clothing]. I had been on the hunt for some vintage inspired shorts [such as the scalloped shorts out there], but I wasn't too fond of the price tag. SO! I did what I do best, and hit my vintage/thrift shops to see what I could find. I found this pair of emerald green shorts in a goodwill in Venice, FL. My Granny hemmed them up a bit for me...I wanted them long...but they were way too long before she hemmed them. My top was a buck! And I purchased it from a thrift/consignment shop in Myrtle Beach. Great purchase, huh? I love the idea of a knit/sweater that is sleeveless. So versatile. I love the color and the subtle flower print too, really makes it special.
