Outfit: Floral Dress, Jean Jacket


Oh hello! This is what I wore to the Needtobreathe concert this past weekend-a comfy grunge-esque dress and a jean jacket. Can't get more simple than that now can we? I also listed this dress in my Etsy Shop so you can have it for all of your summer adventures too!












Well, did anyone else have to deal with torrential storming yesterday? We had some lovely quarter sized hail, flash flooding and super high wind speeds come through. I am so thankful our basement stayed nice and dry as I know that many in the area came away with muddy basements. All the excitement did make my poor little kitty throw up though, both of the cats were running around to windows to see what was going on outside! Here's to hopefully a better few days ahead!

God Bless,

For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

Vintage Shopping


Happy Monday everyone! Did you all have a great weekend? I sure did! Sean, my sister Jenifer, and I went to visit some friends in Minneapolis and attended a Needtobreathe concert. The concert was INCREDIBLE and if you have not heard their music I recommend you cease reading this and look them up immediately! The weekend was filled with great music, jam sessions, walks in the park, ice cream, late night conversations, Dr. Who, great food, vintage shopping, meeting new friends, Settlers of Catan....pretty much everything that makes me happy all rolled into a couple of days. 

 

On this particular day we tried out a delicious Italian restaurant called Pizza Luce where we drank root beer and lemonade, and I tried out this phenomenal pizza that was topped with blue cheese, asparagus, bacon, and sun dried tomatoes. Probably one of the best things I've ever eaten. We then spent a few hours driving around to vintage shops in the area and while I didn't find much to buy I did have a great time looking at all of the gorgeous vintage dresses, suits, and bags.


 


I wore this vintage dress which got surprisingly more wrinkly as the day went on, so apologies haha. It really is one of my new favorites though for the pretty pattern and nude/blush color. It is ever so comfortable and I'm sure I'll wear it many more times this summer.















Special thanks to Jeni for taking my photos this weekend! :)

Have a fabulous start to your week all!
God Bless,

Friday Remix: Tulip Dress

This simple, pale pink dress has been a lot of fun to style. It has many colors in it like blue, lavender, and gold. I can pretty much throw anything on with it and it will match one of the shades within. I hope to get a lot more use out of it this summer as well-sans tights!








God Bless,

Colossians 2:8
Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ.

Inspiration: Spring and Summer Fashions


I couldn't resist posting some of my favorite images of spring and summer fashions from the 30's and 40's! I especially love the casual ensembles here and as always, I am finding items to add to my wishlist. After looking at this group of photos I know I need to find myself some saddle shoes!
Happy Thursday Friends!





















God Bless,
