That's crackers!
I felt very prim and proper in my outfit today, mostly due to the crochet lace collar that came to me from my mother but was made by either my grandmother or great-grandmother (I should get my facts straight). However, I had to work this evening and it seemed very ironic/ridiculous to take my pictures around the campus convenience store.

Frst of all, I love this blog!
Second of all, I would love to find vintage family hand me downs, but no one in my family ever believed in saving anything cool. So Selfish.
Your cool tattoos definitely tone down the "prim and proper" in any outfit!
I wonder how you did take those pictures, they came out superbly cool! I really wish I was more daring to pose and take pictures outside of the apartment, as it would be so much more fun, but I always feel reticent about it. Has anyone taken them for you, or is it the ol' self timer?
I like the skirt and the shoes :)
I Love this outfit...its the accessories that make it...the crochet collar, the fascinator and the beautiful shoes. And the supermarket shoot is brilliant...I can imagine it in a magazine! :)
Love that outfit! So hot.
Really lovely...especially the crochet detailing...
Your shoes! WANT!
Oh I love how the dress makes me see your beautiful tattoo! What a nice look!
i love the contrast of such a prim, ladylike outfit in a supermarket! very cool
do you have tattoos on your back?
I love the contrast between your ladylike outfit and the supermarket! You always make great pictures!
That collar is the cutest! love the picture of you holding those biscuits (?) best, they look yummy!
I love your petite frame. You can carry off everything so well. And I mean EVERYTHING! Love that green dress, I really do. The collar reminds me of the beautiful stuff my grandmother left my mother. This awesome black and gold lace. Maybe I will get it from Mom and put up a picture of it on the net.

who take photos of you?
I do look forward to your photos because you're always so original. That dress always reminds me that I need a green one so badly!
Just me or does the supermarket have a real 50s feel to it? Maybe it's your effect on your surroundings, either way, I like it.
I love your outfit! I'm totally envious of the collar too. Makes me want to dig around my basement for old things like this, if only we had any. heh.
These pictures are so cute and I'm still very much in love with your tattoo!
As I've said that colour really suits you (but you obviously know that!). I love the supermarket shots too!
The photo of you and Ritz is great! Reminds me of a broken down doll.. obsessed with crackers. Or something. I also love the crochet collar, looks great with this dress!
i love your collar and your shoes
The collar is beautiful! The dress is really pretty, I love the neckline at the back!
I totally love your outfit!

I love your shoes. And the colour of that dress is so nice with your hair.
these are the most perfect photos! the colorful shop is the perfect background for the "quiet" and balanced colors of your outfit. love it! (especially the second dress underneath)

So. In love. With that amazing collar! That is so beautiful.
All your photos/outfits are so wonderfully creative! Green is definately your color.
Green looks sooo pretty on you. Green + white is one of my favorite color combinations. Well done, as per usual.

Loving the tattoo exposure!
The crochect color is so detail and beautiful. I love the feather fascinator too!
Oh my gosh i am SO in love with your green dress, it is so beautiful :) I have a tattoo as well, I love that you utilize it so well with your outfits x
I love the idea of layering dresses with skirts. The color of that dress is gorgeous on you. Thanks for posting where the items come from--even if it's stuff that I couldn't just go out and buy, it's kind of cool to know the story behind an outfit.
Those shoes are just lovely, how could you find a vintage pair that you can actually wear!
Love the skirt under the dress.

Back to the subject of public libraries, here they only let you borrow 2 books at a time, and only for one week!
