bottoms up

let me just say i am not a fan of the tube top. or tube dress. tube=banana boob. but im wearing one. which is why there is no close up side shot. you can get these dusty little gypsy skirts at any flea market/vintage store.  they come in tons of rad prints. i warn you, my one attempt to wear this as a skirt....it had the uncanny ability to make me look like i had some nice birthing hips....i'll take the banana boob any day! and the nugget paragraphs are here to stay. thanks for the <3. dyed my hair again. it was getting way carroty--now i'm more tomato/beet territory.
skirt: vintage, cardigan: twelfth street, bag: aridza bross

  12. I do the whole hippie skirt dress thing, but I sew straps onto mine (me and tube tops don't mix). I cut them off of old bras, and sew them on.

  23. Hi!! I often read your blog and I live in Montreal, Canada. I do alot of online shopping and I love the way you layer your necklaces. Is there any online shops that stock necklaces like yours? I'd really appreciate the help, as it is hard to find necklaces in Montreal. Thank you!!

  24. Hey that skirt (dress) matches your new hair perfectly! Well done. I have one of these skirts in my vintage shop right now. If it doesn't sell before the weather warms up, I might borrow it for the day. ;) OOps! haha!

  25. I had hair that color once and I had to dye it so much. Sooo pretty... but requires a lot of upkeep for sure. On another note, I want all of your necklaces.

  27. anoulack: i have noooo idea what color i used on my hair! my friend colors it for me once a week and it turns out different every time!!! washes out like crazy so it's always exciting and new.

    anonymous: i have been collecting my necklaces throughout the years. shopplanetblue.com has a couple amazing pieces (that's where i got both of these) and i always scour vintage stores, and the best? ebay!! get on there and type in whatever you like, and you will get tons of options!! hope this helps.

    hannah: thanks for calling me out on the mid-lengths! wasn't sure if anyone would notice ;)

Im not a fan of "banana boobage" either so i totally feel you on that! But i love the fact that you can take the cutiest prarie skirt and hike it up and instantly you have a very chic tube dress! Love the combo with the boots ;)! Soooo west coast hippie rocker chic!! loooooove it!!
