The Day Before Saturday







What did I do the day before Saturday? Work because I need to in order to buy the food and pretty things I need to carry on with my daily life...AND my brother is back from Europe so I spent some time with him. He's as tall as me now...jeeeeeez feels like he's been gone forever! Now im going to have to bug him to help me with my blog postings when le BF is busy :P...for dinner we went to get chicken, potatoes and rice and waited for 1 hour!! Apparently im not the only one with this genius idea (it's almost the same price buying it already made and then...no need to cook...im not a great cook...yet..unfortunately :s). Now on to the outfit! The hat, shoes and belt were all thrifted and in total cost a mere $12. I love the shoes- they have fringe detailing at the front with a little bow and a wedge heel. The wedge is low which means they are super comfy. Can't wait for the weekend...Im going to Wonderland tomorrow since my friend Frank got us all discounted tics (equivalent to six flags in the states I guess?) and I will be wearing the cutout bikini I posted in a previous posting...I will post pictures either sat/sun night =)

Dress: F21
Shoes: Thrifted Kenneth Cole
Bag: Winners
Sunnies: Burberry
Hat: Thrifted
Belt: Thrifted


P.s. I swear im not miserable...so I posted a "smiling" pic to prove it.
As to the last pic- the dress was really short so I wore little jean shorts because with the wind we've been getting here..its better to be safe!
Wish you guys an awesome weekend and thank you to all of you who take the time to comment- you don't know how much I appreciate it! I feel like I have my own community of friends (all with a common interest) from all over the world and it really does mean a lot to me...xxx

I love the detail on the dress and that hat looks great on you. I never wear my hat like that because I can't drive with it on. haha

hey you! when you wrote the comment I was still in the process of "uploading" the info. You can check it out now... anyway, its all vintage (except for the fedora). Which reminds me, I saw a pair of shoes very similar to the ones you're wearing at Urban Outfitters. LOVE THEM!

Love,
