a proper lady

i've always wanted to be the kind of girl that looks flawless and put together everyday but i'm generally much more haphazard.  that being said now that i'm on the other side of my 20's i do tend towards dressing up more.  i think the idea of becoming a proper lady has been creeping into my subconscious for years but recently i've been trying out makeup, buying heels, and getting my nails done.  i'm nowhere near "refined" just yet but i'm having lots of fun being a female and into fashions! 

Pulp Vintage

a few of my current favorites from Pulp Vintage.  they've got a knack for finding unique retro pieces that can seamlessly fit into any girl's wardrobe.  if it wasn't 80 degrees all of a sudden, that first sweater would already be mine!

(cherry blossom hair comb by alexandra grecco, american apparel pinpoint oxford round collar button up, poppy fields coral high waisted shorts c/o lulu's, american apparel tights, vintage coach purse, vintage heels)

from the looks of the green jungle in our backyard i think it's alright to call it springtime.  further evidence: i had ice cream yesterday and i've been wearing shorts for two days straight! even if i am still wearing tights underneath and even if my outfit choice has little to do with the weather and much more to do with the fact that i've fallen in love with this high waisted pair in particular.  they perfectly combine my two current favorites, silky fabrics and pink.  thank you lulu's!

homestead

a few photos of our homestead and some of my favorite things.  the gold shoes are a new addition but the 'pas ce soir' sign has been traveling around with me for years.  oh! we got the new ipad so i've been wasting endless amounts of time playing on it.  it really is as fun as everyone says!  but i feel sort of old and hopeless trying to find applications.  i'm sure you are much better at these things than me so send me some suggestions?
