a day of delays?

today started out a little weird.
everything was just a little behind, and traffic was a lot
behind due to a serious wreck (on the OTHER
side of the freeway). we're a bunch of gawkers!!
i'm not sure how I feel about this outfit.
i was running behind, as I mentioned,
and this feels sub par.

dress: Ross
shirt: vintage, thrifted (from Blue Velvet in Austin)
belt: Ross (altered by me)
shoes: Two Lips (via 6pm.com)

up top:

i wore this belt last Monday and mentioned it was magical.
i had no idea HOW it was staying on.
clearly, a latch or hook of some kind had fallen off.
so this weekend, I added snaps!!
the holes were already there,
so the fix was relatively easy.
now the belt stays closed securely
and not by some mysterious force.

earrings (hannah d's):
these are NOT the earrings I wanted to wear.
But I could only fine one of the two needed
orange earrings and I became flustered at how
much time I was wasting searching for an orange
plastic earring and decided to move on!
watchlet (Max Mara):
the watch doesn't actually work anymore.
HAHA!
but it's cute. so THERE. !!
shoes for a pop of color:


happy it's Monday!
why??
because i'm inching ever closer
to the day my vacation in Vegas begins!!! (July 2nd)
BOOMPS!
i reserved seats for Erik and myself at Le Reve
for July 3rd (in the splash zone!!!)
We're splash zone kind of people.
Happy Monday everyone!

I don't know why you don't feel amazing in this outfit, because you definitely look it.

As always.

I really like the zing of color from the vintage shirt at the bodice- it makes the outfit and I am sure that it made you feel a bit summery all day. And that belt makes your waist so tiny!
