I can’t seem to stop wearing poka dots… and the funny thing is I don’t realize it until I got to post something. Oops. What can you do?
This is one of my many J Crew warehouse finds. I had the privileged of going to college in Lynchburg, Virginia, home of one of the J Crew [...]
I do apologize, it has been ridiculously long since I’ve posted, and it’s not like I have the excuse of “I’m in a different country”! I have no excuse, SO SORRY!
But good news, FALL IS HEEEEEERE!!! I’m a girl that loves her 4 seasons. It gives me a chance to mix things up, which I’ve [...]
I have it! Okay, let me explain. My siblings and I (there are five of us) pass around (aka steal from each other) this adidas tee. It was my dad’s in high school or college, so it’s true vintage and the fabric at the perfect worn, uber comfy texture! I forget who I took it [...]
I got this little dress at a thrift store. It is very youthful and I love that… who wants to grow up anyway?!? It has great detailing… a floral white pattern under the poka-dots (I am eating my words as I recently said I’m not the biggest fan of poka dots… oops. haha).
Below you can [...]
I’m not a hug poka dot fan, but they do tend to have that retro 50’s feel…especially with these shades. I got the sunglasses, skirt, belt and scarf thrifting.
This morning I am listening to The Knife. They are an electro pop sibling duo from Sweden. They have such a unique sound and i can’t get [...]
Today I am featuring my Australian thrift purchase. I got this vintage leather messenger bag from the local Salvos (Salvation Army) forĀ $5 AUS. I wasn’t uber practical in my packing and only brought large awkward sized totes, so this find is justified. haha
The bag has so many great compartments and pockets…
I am SOOOO stoked [...]
just so you know…I have blogged about this dress in a previous entry. I’m just SO EXCITED for fall andĀ I used the dress in a fall outfit, so I had to share!
The boots are a recent purchase that I have been wanting for SO LONG! I made it a point that for the fall [...]
Okay, so I learned a couple things yesterday… for starters, I am HORRIBLE AT TIMING. Take a look below. I was just going to post one pic, then I realized I look like a fool and thought I’d provide some entertainment.
Yesterday I took the bush path to the beach to journal and stopped along the [...]
I’m in love with rompers. I am trying to squeeze in at least one more wear to all of my favorite summer clothes before we get hit hardcore with Fall weather. This romper is one of my favorites, found at one of my usual thrift stores I visit, Unique.
I’m wearing my Keds that I’m pretty [...]
I moved rooms and now I have six beds, a closet and my own bathroom. I bought a large sketch pad and hope to brighten up the white wall a bit.
My love for dresses will live on here, though I have left all heels behind. I’m going cas for the next three months. I got [...]
In getting to Australia, I didn’t anticipate cold weather. I only packed one pair of jeans and after my luggage fiasco (see below), I had not clean clothes. Thanks goodness for friends and a shared wardrobe. :) My dear, dear friend Britt graciously lent me some legging and a jacket. This sweatshirt jacket is my [...]
It was first official day in Oz. Not being a “shorts person” I realized I may be converted… I cut off a few part of my jeans in preparation for my time here. While everyone in the states is transitioning into fall I am going into Spring. Spring here is in the 70s & 80s, [...]

SO MANY RUFFLES!
Let me start by saying that nothing in this outfit is thrifted. I know…shocking. It’s totally rare, but there ARE fun things found at places that aren’t thift stores :) This outfit is all Forever 21 item NOT bought at Forever 21. Pahaha. The dress is from Papaya (a place I’ve [...]
These pants….I’ve been looking forward to blogging about them! I found them at a thrift store I think last fall and didn’t even try them on. I just grabbed them and left. It was totally meant to be because they fit me perfect. Even length, which is super hard to find for me since my [...]
So, I am playing catch up and finally posting… I love, love, love this shirt! The colors, the cut… it is just too cute. This is my last post from the good ol’ US of A…. onto to Australia!
Grace & Peace!

Today was another gloomy day. I figured I would brighten up somebody’s day, if not just my own, with my bright orange pants (I refuse to call them ‘capris’ merely for the fact that I don’t like that word, so ‘pants’ it is!). They were an accidental find at my favorite thrift store one day [...]
The weather can’t make up it’s mind today… sunny, then cloudy, then sunny… Granted that has no bearing on this post, but still… thought I’d share. I’m supposed to finish packing today, but I keep blogging and playing catch up on some design projects. I have the whole night, cha!
Once again, squeezin’ in the summer [...]
Got to go into DC today! Had an audition for singing in a worship group and couldn’t help but take advantage of the gorgeous evening for walking around and taking some pics. It was just beautiful out. Thankfully I had my handy dandy photographer (whom, in the mean time, shall remain anonymous, just cause!) with [...]
Fall may be upon us, but I am still crankin out the summer wardrobe…well, much of my roomies wardrobe. Mine in packed in boxes along with the rest of my life in my living room, minor details. Anyway… I so LOVE this skirt. We found it at a thrift store for $3, it has vintagy [...]
This weekend I went to Old Town Alexandria with the fam. There are TONS of cute little boutiques, antique stores and restaurants- great atmosphere.
I checked out the Torpedo Factory (I have been wanting to go for a while). It’s an art center, with four levels and many different galleries for artists to show their work. [...]
