Things are happening.

Could everyone do me a favor and CALM. DOWN. with the Christmas stuff? Sheesh, let a girl eat some turkey bird and swallow a few whole deviled eggs before you wrap her in tinsel! I have love for the green and red holiday as much as the next girl but I like to take my festivities one at a time! 

That said, it has been a busy couple of days and I bring you a sampling of ways I walked out the house in my thrifty thrifty goods...

florals and leather.
(look I changed my shoes!)

I love my boots because the odd "higher on the inside" shape is flattering to my legs for some optical illusion reason. It's science, I don't understand it. The boots are Steve Madden, the dress is thrifted from Salvation Army, the jacket is the same jacket I have been wearing every day for a month now. It's satisfyingly cheap, this outfit.

things you put on in five minutes flat.
(I am trying to distract from my colorless face with a well placed scarf...)

I love a good sea of black on a day when getting out of bed was a struggle and makeup is the last possibility! Anthropologie dress from last year, gifted scarf, and Buffalo Exchange patent combat boots!! Hurrah!

I will not say Happy Thanksgiving to anyone until it is Thanksgiving. I am taking a stand.xo

Hey, I did buy the dress from you!
I really love it, it's one of the best-fitting vintage pieces I own. :)

I'm really sorry you had to go through all that trouble for my package. But I was really taken by how fast and professionally you handled the situation.
(I have no confidence towards the post office these days. I'm scared of how many of our Etsy orders are going to get lost in mail as well.)

Oh, and sure.
Link away, sweetheart!
