A Kiss To Build a Dream On

Today I decided to walk down to the Enchanted Florist because I heard they had some bunches of lavender and I wanted to fill our apartment with that lovely scent because it's one of my absolute favorites (plus I want to do a watercolor study of it tomorrow). Luckily they had 4 bunches left!

Head scarf, belt and skirt from Laura's Vintage
Top from DollMeUpDarling
Shoes from TJMaxx
 

It was such a great day today weather wise that I couldn't let myself pass it up and hurriedly got dressed and headed out! Pearl got way more smiles and compliments than I did, which is as it should be. She's darn cute!

The Enchanted Florist is located on Columbia street just off Pearl street and it has the most beautiful store front ever.


While trying to take a photo of my bunches of lavender with Pearl while sitting on a bench in Tricentennial Park, I accidentally got my skirt completely wet from my flowers. So, I had to sit there for a bit to dry off and Pearl really enjoyed the view!


I eventually got a good photo with both Pearl and the lavender even though she much preferred to people watch than look at me.


Now I'm back at home with the windows and back door open to let the nice breeze air out the apartment.

Get the Look!

If you want to get the look from my previous post, here's an easy vintage reproduction way of doing that without breaking bank!

 1-Vixen Vondetta Top in White from DollMeUpInc for $19.99
2-Hell Bunny Red High Waist Capris from Unique Vintage for $48
3-Small woven straw beach tote from Amazon for $15.99
4-Hey Viv! Red Chiffon Scarf from Amazon for $5.99
5-Gold Stretch 50s style belt from Amazon for $9.50
6-Red pointed toe ballet flats from GoJane for $12.80 

Just throw your hair into a top knot and tie a scarf around it and you'll basically have my outfit from Saturday! If you do want some 50s style cigarette pants like I wore instead, you could always troll Etsy for some in your size like I did. And then, you can add the rest of the outfit and get mine almost exactly.
