everyday dress up


you know you've played dress up in you mom's closet at least once in your life...don't lie. i still do! this is a photo from my article in Little Red Book. if you never have, try exploring the dark corners of your mom & even your grandma's attics. So fun.
i found this floral stitched clutch & blue silk dress in my grandma's closet. apparently she had quite the fashionable past i never knew about.
the ring was my mom's. absolute favorite & i wear it everyday. her best friend of 20 years designed it for her with 8 diamonds that were once pairs of earings from 4 of her ex-boyfriends (she was a bit of a man-eater in her youth from what i hear!). a great reminder for me of loyalty & love between girlfriends :)
since i'm now in need of new (technically old, but i prefer "vintage") interior nick-nacks, i plan on rummaging through some more of my attic when i get home for christmas break. you never know what's inside some of those dusty boxes..
