kerry said she still wants me to do outfit posts. so here are a few from days i remembered to take photos.

at the shop wednesday, wearing levi's skinnies with a vintage lacy fishtail top that i bought a while back at the antique fair for $10. our upstairs neighbor is a gardener (and artist and dancer), so our courtyard is often filled with plant babies.


this vintage metallic knit wiggle dress had armpit stains when it came to me so i altered it to be sleeveless. when i still didn't wear it, i figured it was due to its original light tiffany blue color...so i dip dyed it. much better. a customer thought that my vintage rhinestone horn brooch looked like the moon set in the night sky.


i don't shop garage sales (too much new junk!), but i got lucky at one last year and scored three 40s rayon dresses including this one. i love the sweet little novelty print. perfect to wear while eating apple cider donuts and listening to live bluegrass last weekend up at rainbow orchards.


my awesomely awesome shoes were a new splurge. they were made by the talented beatrice valenzuela. i love them, i might marry them if it was legal.

agree with kerry and Brigit...don't stop! I love the top outfit the most....(even though the others are cool too) i like to think I'd wear that. That top is superduper.

We are all with Kerry and if you ever stop posting outfits it'll be all Occupy Crimson and Clover! I always feel so inspired and filled with good cheer when you post something. I hope you know that there are a lot of ladies out here relying on you for some magic.

Much love!
