Shoppin


Stumbled upon MISRED one day in St. Petersburg. If you are ever in the area in FL, this is a must stop shop. Stocked full of fun vintage and consignment finds, all at VERY VERY reasonable prices. 
I actually sold the dress off my back, and walked away with this great fitted striped blazer for just $18. 

A similar necklace to the one Im wearing here can be found at my ETSY SHOP HERE.

AND THEN....
We found this amazing wearhouse sized building/store full of vintage. Literally there were clothes coming out of the ceilings and jewelry coming out from under the carpet. I have never seen so many piles upon piles of clothes before in my life. It was honestly, and this takes alot for me to say, but overwhelming. I could have spent 7 full days here going through stuff and still not have seen everything. But there was sunshine and adventures to be had, so I walked away with just my jaw open, and enough images in my mind to keep me dreaming for a few days.

My mom in the thick of things

HEAVEN


Fell in love with this hat, but walked away from the price tag...

This is one of 25 of these jewelry cases..


After all that shopping we stopped in at a popular tapas restaurant. You can see from my plates that the food wasn't any good...

No really, I was licking the bowl. So good

Momma was in the clean plate club too

Yum, yum

Orange is the new Black

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to escape the cold, gray, and snowy weather of Chicago, pack up my sundresses, flip flops, and swimsuit and head to sunny, beautiful Florida! It was so amazing to dip my toes in the sand, walk on the beach, and work outside in the warm sun. I had to take the pictures of this dress inside because its such a hot colored dress and I wanted to capture its true essence. I have held onto this dress for many many years, but Im ready to pass it on to the next person to wear and love, so I put it up for sale at my Etsy Shop HERE

I also wanted to show off the new earrings I made, shown in these pics. Also for sale at my Etsy Shop HERE
