Blue Lagoon

Dress: Vintage
Belt: Vintage
Bag: Vintage
Shoes: Urban Outfitters

Spring is slowly coming to St. Louis (albeit verrrrry sloooowly), and I'm finally able to wear dresses without tights some days! I've been doing this preemptively for a while because I'm tired of trying to coordinate tights with my outfits, but it feels good to not be shivering anymore! I got this dress a week or so ago along with another one at one of my favorite local vintage haunts. I've considered buying it since the first time I saw it in the shop about a year ago, and I was always amazed that it was still there when I went in.  I finally took that as a sign and broke down and bought it. I'm glad I did because I've worn it at least three times since then! My super awesome beaded purse that I call my 'mermaid purse' is probably my favorite thing in my closet right now.  I like it so much that I almost don't want to take it out of my closet because I don't want it to get ruined! It's in perfect condition! But I always break down and use it because it's just too darn pretty to leave sitting in its hiding place.
Anyway, not much else has been happening around these parts. I lost my mind yesterday and decided to paint my entire room on a whim, so now my back and neck are really sore, but I'm glad I did it! It's now a very bright minty green color.  Hopefully there will be pictures to come, but for some reason, I never really like how pictures in/of my room turn out, so we will see! Other than that, I've just been crafting it up, and working on trying to get stuff back into the etsy shop! It's been a while, but I've got a lot of ideas now! I wish my hands could work as fast as my brain!
