Fourth of July (and fifth)

Fourth of July... Mohawk Boy and I went boating all day with a few of his friends. When I got home, um, I got a little carried away and wore this to eat a sandwich and watch the fireworks in a parking lot... yeah.

Dress - thrifted vintage Promises, Promises
Shoes - Madeline (like 12 years ago!)

These were (I think) the first heels I ever bought that weren't for like prom or something. I went off to college and decided it was time for heels... then I realized that having one major on one side of the Mississippi river and the other major on the other side meant I would have to do a loooooot of walking every day and would not be wearing heels for the next four years... oops. Still rocked 'em on weekends though.

Yesterday's outfit... Mohawk Boy found it amazing/hilarious that I knew the trim on my skirt was called ric rac...Oh, boys. I guess it is fun to say.

Tank - Old Navy
Belt - thrifted
Skirt - thrifted Willi Smith
Sandals - thrifted vintage Di Orsini

Ok, I'm off to keep updating the etsy with more vintage... having some time off before summer school starts is awesome but being poor sucks, especially since I have a mortgage payment, so I'm making myself "work" all day... only problem is photographing, measuring, and describing everything takes a LONG TIME! And I'm easily distracted at home...

Pool parties, BBQs, Baseball games

Whoops! Didn't mean to leave you for a week but you know, it happens...

Worn on Friday... I had a pool party at my house (all my friends who worked Gay Pride weekend had the day off to make up for all the work they did last weekend) so we got a rainbow cake from Dairy Queen, grilled, went swimming and got a bit day-drunk... after a nap, I threw this on to go see some local bands at The Hexagon:

T-shirt - thrifted vintage Surrey

Dress - thrifted Moda Int'l

Sandals - thrifted (brand is worn off)

The best thrifted sandals ever and me man-handling the pool party VIP, Jude:

Saturday, Mr. T came over (because we are still friends) and we had pool party part two, grilled, then biked to a Twins game! Which was a heartbreaking loss in the 9th to the Brewers. Boo.

Sunday, Mohawk Boy and I went to the Twins game at 1pm, which was a very exciting come-from-behind win over the Brewers... so that sorta made up for the game the night before. I had to work a wedding for the photo booth in the evening so here is what I wore to that:

Dress - thrifted, handmade

Brooch - vintage via Roadside Bridge

Bangles - thrifted

Shoes - Madeline

I'll be back tomorrow (no, really) with the rest of the holiday weekend (yes, there is more, because 2 Twins games, 2 pool parties, and 2 BBQs aren't enough...)
