Leaves, like the things of man, you
With your fresh thoughts care for, can you?

Hey, don't look at my hair like that! It's not what you think. I never went to Ross Dress for Less and acquired the
Bumpit set. Anyway, if I had, it was only 5 dollars. There's no way I wedged that thing in my hair soaked in Suave for Men hairspray. Oh you. So suspicious.

* About that jacket... A customer returned this yellow goodness to the store and I was all over it. I wanted it since it came in brand new, so I was pretty excited to acquire it for a measly $2 (I had a small giftcard.) Imagine my surprise upon its first wearing when I found movie tickets and seashells in the pockets! So there you are... used.
Have a lovely day, everyone!
Oh the last Picture is sooo cute!:)

I do not judge, I may have also acquired a Bump It from Ross. But I love your headband...so cute!
ReplyDeleteHi I've just found your blog and I want to say I absolutely love it! This outfit is gorgeous - seems to match perfectly with the weather :) I really think used clothes have a certain extra something to them (as strange as that sounds - i'm a big charity shop lover!) how cute that the pockets had seashells in them! Your photogrpahy is beautiful too. I'm your newest follower :)
ReplyDeleteWould love it if you'd take a look at my blog too as I am pretty new, maybe let me know what you think?

Also, it's rediculous how much I want boots like yours.
