[No pretty photo montage today…my primary photographer is working day and night on a competition, so he's out of commission for the week. Lori took this one for me.]
Dress, homemade, thrifted
Belt, thrifted
Flower brooch, from my mum
Tights, Betsey Johnson
This dress was homemade, and is literally falling apart at the seams. Before I wear it again, I’m going to have to perform surgery. The seams of the patch pockets on the front look really messy, too. It has the potential for amazingness, just…not yet.
I bought the belt on the same day at the same thrift store in my neighborhood. I also bought a red one, because I loved the combination of bright red, green, and blue…but my shopping companion insisted that white was better. I heeded his wisdom on the day this was taken.
The pin belonged to my mum, and when I was young, I wasn’t allowed to touch it. Now that she’s passed on and I wear all her jewelry, I still feel a little like I’m doing something naughty.
I wore three pairs of tights—two pairs of black ones underneath the blue shown above. It was positively freezing.
Kiddos, what are you wearing?
