It's in the mid-80s today and I am ecstatic. I'm hot and soooo happy! Shortly I am having margaritas and Mexican food. Partly to enjoy the weather and partly to celebrate my big news...

The Chicago Cultural Center will be selling Branchbound jewelry very soon!


This is an amazing opportunity for me and my shop and I am over the moon! My dad posted the news on Facebook before I got to, ha. Also I have a Heartsy deal coming next week, I'll be sure to post it! Busy busy month for Branchbound.

I'll leave you with this AWESOME photo of me and Seymour. Look at his mouth, haha.

oh my god look at his face

gold lace bird earrings - Branchbound, made by me
coral linen wiggle dress - vintage, Etsy
nude chevron tights - Target
tan t-strap wedges - DSW


Saturday and Sunday I sold my Branchbound line at Vintage Heaven Chicago. These photos are from Saturday at the start of the first day. Michael so nicely took my outfit photo- I needed to pick a dress that had at least one pocket and this one did indeed have one pocket. I've seen this dress in blue, I'm tempted to pick it up, too. I also donned a pair of my bird earrings, as you can see I made them in many more colors...

Feather or Haute Dress - ModCloth
army green tights - UO
BC Shipwreck wedges - 6pm


Saturday it was sunny and mild, so Michael and I went downtown for a bit of shopping. I'm fighting off a cold, but was determined to enjoy the nice weather this weekend. I wore this dress in Nashville but neglected to snap a picture. I really love the cut and pattern, and I definitely need more white dresses in my wardrobe.

My last day in Nashville the sun finally came out, and Rachel and I had been really bad about taking outfit photos so we wanted to find a good spot. Rachel thought we'd stop by a mill that was being converted into stores, and upstairs it was empty with this amazing skylight. As you can tell, these images are pretty much perfect.

I am excited to be wearing this dress from Karen I got in late October, and since I wasn't partial to it with a sweater I've been waiting for it to warm up so I could wear it. I think Karen was actually wearing one of my headbands at the same time I was wearing this dress! ♥

Also, let me tell you about this ring. I had this exact ring for about a year before I lost a stone (green, my fave) a few weeks ago. I went to the Nashville Flea Market and a vendor had this ring so I bought a new one! Hooray! Also, you can see my sweet manicure.

antique pearl collar necklace - Tennessee Antique Mall
pink silk cardigan - thrifted
Rodarte for Target dress - eBay
nude chevron stockings - Target
tan t-strap wedges - DSW


All these photos were taken by Rachel from MouseVox Vintage on my visit to Nashville! This is what I wore on Sunday to a ladies brunch at Margot. It was delicious and very fun. I met Quincy of Q's Daydream and Alyson of Alyson Is Neat as well as many of Rachel's friends. I'll have more pictures of that later! I'm going to spread out the posts so as not to flood you.

The evening before, Rachel and I popped into the Tennessee Antique Mall after getting rained out of the Flea Market and I found this beautiful collar. I was browsing some online the other day, and this one was gorgeous- and affordable! I thought it would make the perfect finishing touch on my brunch outfit and I was very pleased.

Fair-Haired

I'm blond!

orange tunic dress - Tucker for Target
olive green tights - UO
tan wedges - DSW


It took 3 hours to get it the right shade, but I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. I love it. My eyes and lips really pop now and it's the perfect shade for Spring and Summer. I'm excited to see how it looks with all my vintage summer dresses, I'm used to seeing them worn with my long, red hair. Can you believe how much my hair has changed in the past year? I wonder what that means... Regardless, I plan on sticking with the blond for a while.

Longchamp Le Pliage







I am smitten with these Longchamp Le Pliage totes! They are huge, nylon with leather accents, durable, waterproof, and foldable. These are perfect for summer and my upcoming trip to Nashville! I just need to decide on a color... Which one would you get?

Especially cos my summer shoes will be these (once I get my tax return)...!
