Wearing a vintage romper, belt, shoes, hat and jewelry with Dollar Tree tights.Aren't these pictures reminiscent of the Brooke Shields film, "Pretty Baby"? Don't get me wrong, I'm not in search of becoming a child whore, but I have to admit that I adore Violet's style! =) I love how she combines the simplicity of the white dress with the bold pattern of the textured flower hat.
These past few days have been SO busy! Thursday, I had my AP Lit exam, which went surprisingly smooth, and I actually enjoyed it, though it did mark the final end of my online AP lit class. I'm really going to miss my literature class, the time with those classmates, and but especially the time with my wonderful teacher. In books, they always say how a character is influenced by a teacher: I'd never thought that was true until I had to leave this class. =( Waah! I wish I could rewind time and retake her classes again. (Love you, Mrs. I., if you're reading this!)
After my exam, R and I went to Fairey Godmother's, where I bought a number of items: a hippie maxi dress, a Lolita-esque dress, a studded belt, and a blue ring. I was tagged by the lovley Vanessa of MITICA:
What is your current obsession ? Vintage clothing!
What are you wearing today? A white and sherbert maxi dress from the 60's with patent leather stripper shoes and lots of bangles.

If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you like it to be? My house would be a replica of Versailles, set in the mysterious forests of Transylvania, or perhaps the rolling slopes of Ireland.
