100

I am very excited that this is my one hundredth post which also happens to coincide with the fact that I have 100 official readers at the same time. Thank you so much! I wanted to wear a very special dress but it was just too darn hot today. Luckily for me while thrifting today I found this incredible black hat for $2 that sort of made my outfit a bit more extraordinary. We opted to spend today perusing thrift stores mostly for household items. I am determined to make our house more beautiful this summer as we are planning on living here for 3 more years. I am so enjoying spending more time with Bea now that school is out. Her entire outfit is thrifted of course. I have been finding her so many cool gingham outfits for summer. I wish these pants fit me they are so cute. She is looking so grown up lately.

 

pants and top: thrift town, sandals: thrifted, shades: bows and arrows

After thrifting we went to play and take pictures at a park.

 I've had the striped shirt for almost 10 years and I have never gotten tired of wearing it. Unfortunately I think it is going to fall apart on me soon. I love the flats too but they are also falling apart.

 

shirt: I don't remember but it was probably from the mall, flats: vintage gift, shorts: crimson & clover, hat: thrifted

Beatrix found these gorgeous white shoes that made her outfit that much cooler.

When the group of sketchy meth-heads finally left and stopped sitting on the play equipment Bea had a lot of fun on the static-prone slide.

 

I am so glad I decided to start a style blog. I would like think of this blog as a lifestyle blog as I do want to write about other things besides fashion. However I love clothes and blogging about it has improved my wardrobe, and since I rarely buy an item that is more than $5 I am not in financial ruin as a result. The style blogging community is full of such wonderful creative geniuses and I really feel that I finally have a creative outlet for my burgeoning artistic side without compromising my ethics.

 

Today one of my outfits was featured on Amanda's blog, The Upside of Wonder, in the looks of the week. Amanda has such a darling blog and etsy store. Thank you!
