I didn't even add a necklace today, which is rare for me, but I feel like this outfit has enough going on that it doesn't need it. Flirty and fun, you can't beat it!
I went on a thrift date with Erin last night and found a few more fun summer things for just over $20. We found vintage there and I found a vintage shirt and skirt that I am super excited about. You'll see those items soon. I had no idea that this particular thrift store had vintage until Erin told me about it, so now that I know, I'll be checking in there a little more often.
I am sharing a kitty picture today for Megan Mae - she likes my kitty pictures and I thought she could use some cheering up, so here are my lazy girls from this morning. Pippin's out for the count, Taylor's not so sure quite yet. Neither of them really cared all that much that I was leaving. "Bye mom, we're sleeping."
I had two questions yesterday that I thought I'd answer real quick. For those who are curious about how I did my blog header, I found a really helpful guide on another blog - link is here. I used Picasa to create it as this guide suggested and it worked pretty well. I did find that I had to chose "shrink to fit" when I uploaded to Blogger, but then it worked just fine.
Then as far as the Target shoes go, I was clued into the fact that there are often apparel and accessories coupons on Target.com by fellow MN blogger Heidi - she always is on top of the good deals and had posted last week that there was a buy one, get one 50% off coupon on shoes on Target.com, so I printed that bad boy off right away! I was lucky too in that both pairs of sandals I chose were already on sale and the coupon made them even cheaper. So, moral of the story, check out Target.com from time to time for deals like that!
Outfit rundown:
Dress - vintage, Band of Thrifters
Sweater - Decree, JCPenney
Sandals - Marshalls
Bracelet - Stella and Dot
Earrings - Charming Charlie

I don't think I would have ever given that floral a chance, but it looks killer with the red. I wish it was nice enough 'round these Portland parts so I could go without tights!
