This dress is designed by Double Stitch, a local sister design team. I like supporting local designers when I can and I had always wanted one of their pieces, so it is very special to me. This spring I found one, with the tags still attached, for $3.
vintage betmar fedora, thrifted
gold studs, thrifted
vintage purple sunglasses, thrifted
cotton cardigan, thrifted
message button, found on the ground (it reads: "The most violent element in society is ignorance." Emma Goldman)
double stitch crochet dress, thrifted
vintage gloves, swap gift from atomicrose
patent/snakeskin ferragamo pumps, thrifted
100% thrifted!

Fall makes me feel introspective. So much has happened in the last year for me; I got married and became a mother all within the last 12 months. Someone commented that I've changed; I hope I have, for the better!

rings, harvard square and field museum
blue tights, H & M (I cut the feet out)
silver leather flats, thrifted with shell buttons added by me)
