what i’m wearing:
~dress: I found this at a thrift store in Texas and woah’d the moment I saw it. $4. Jessica Howard brand. It’s so mod, right? The tag looks vintage, but I’m not sure Jessica Howard even HAS vintage.
Either way, I love it.
Actually, all of my favorite pieces I own in my closet are from a thrift store.
Everything is so fun and unique and has such a mysterious story to tell.
ahhhh….it’s making me smile just thinking about it.
~leggings: forever 21
~boots: vintage f21 {meaning they are over 2 years old. lol}
~sunnies & ring: also f21, also vintage
~feather earrings: I found these at a cute little boutique in Texas when I was visiting my sister and they were in the clearance section. I think I scored them for maybe $4. LOVE!
~bracelet: my “mom” bracelet, a tiffany & co. knockoff that Taylor bought me for Christmas from his school store.
I may just treasure it more than anything real from Tiffany’s that I own at the moment.
{sorry Jimmy.}
btw, this combo: dress/tunic with leggings and boots?
Yes, I am aware it’s my winter staple outfit.
It’s warm and comfy, AND it hides my winter fat.
{or at least it tries.}

These pictures were taken after church on Sunday, and I was super excited because I LOVE/have a slight fascination with this retaining wall.
{not nearly as much as Jimmy does though.}
Did you know that this wall is the largest retaining wall in all of something?
Or maybe it was that it’s the longest continuous wall of that kind in the U.S.?
Well, it’s something MAY-JAH like that at least.
And that’s just the word on the street (another way to say i heard from a friend who heard from a friend, a.k.a. gossip), but I haven’t fact checked it yet.
Either way, it’s kind of a cool backdrop, no?
{and just for the record, for those of you asking, I DO sometimes smile showing my teeth! see above! aren’t you so proud?!?}

I did some thrift shopping this weekend….once again with no luck. I’m beginning to think that I need to live somewhere else if I want to score at thrift shopping….but either way, I love your finds.
I’m a HUGE fan of feather earrings!
I hope you’ll stop by and link-up with What I Wore Wednesday, too!

Next time I see you I’m gonna pry your lips open and force you to take teeth pics w me. 🙂 love the big button on this dress. I wish I could find stuff like you do. Perhaps a trip to SAN is in order and you can teach me your ways, Darth Vintage.
Your hair is amazinggggg! Can mine be half as pretty as yours?!
