woodland




dress - vintage
belt - Target
shoes - secondhand

I found this velvet dress a while back when I was perusing through an antique mall with my dear friend, Honey. I think it's an old dance costume or something, but she used her persuasion to convince me to get it. No regrets. It's perfect to dress up or wear casually. Majorly love.

To be completely honest, I feel a bit like a fish out of water with this whole blogging thing. I'm still trying to figure this foreign world out and it's taking some time to adjust, I guess. We'll just have to see how it continues to unfold. Oh, the unknown path that lies ahead...

just can't go wrong




sweater - secondhand
blouse - secondhand
tights - Romwe

I know a sweatshirt and shorts isn't the most exciting outfit, but casual and comfy has been the only option lately as I begin to feel the wrath of classes this semester. Priorities, people. However, I've found that flashing a detailed collar or something similar is the perfect way to make a simple sweatshirt just a little less lazy. Gotta love the details.

take a breath, sunday





sweater - secondhand
shoes - secondhand
earrings - vintage (Kudzu in Atlanta)

I've been presented with a lazy, cloudy day, tempting me to just stay inside, throw productivity out the window, and drink my weight in coffee. Doesn't sound half bad.

And so it begins. I spent a lot of time thinking about how to kick off this blog in a classy way, and I still haven't figured it out. Here's to trying, huh? For now, we'll just go with a few things about me, an introduction of sorts.


I love all things thrift (if you couldn't already tell by my above outfit)---it makes shopping become a treasure hunt or an exploration into unknown people's pasts. I find inspiration in Allen Ginsberg, antique stores, combat boots, short depths of field, vintage photographs, and traveling, just to name a few things. I've got to keep the mystery alive, right?
