So I was set on posting a fabulous outfit today. However, a couple things kept me from doing so.
1. It looks like this outside. (see photo above) It has been snowing on and off all day. The snow is great for all the farmers around but makes me want to stay inside all cozy and warm :)
2. I woke up at eleven because...
3. I finally have been hit with the cold my sister has been spreading around the house for a couple weeks now. My immune system must have taken the day off. Don't worry I'm not to upset about it. (as long as it doesn't take to long to get over.
So instead of showing you what I am wearing (trust me it isn't anything special) I've decided to tell a story! Hurray!
So I have this condition where I can't pass up vintage dresses I see at the D.I. (for any of you who don't know what that is it is just the Mormon version of Goodwill). I mean to get a rad vintage dress for say four or six dollars. That is unheard of! It makes me especially happy when I find dresses with the tags still on. (see photo below)
Ok so for the story part of this post. I was found a perfect bran new vintage dress yesterday at D.I. When I was marveling at it at home I looked more closely at the tag. As you see Alice Harrop had this dress on lay-away. Cool right? What makes it even cooler is that I am related to Alice Harrop. Crazy right? I know! I feel like it was destiny :)
Well I will get back to my sick day (it just told me that it misses me). Doesn't it look beautiful? Oh and they are a part of it as well. (I love me some Gilbert Blythe)

OH MY GOSH!!!! Gilbert Blythe is seriously the most amazing man on the planet. *sigh* I wish he was real, so I could date him. ;)
ReplyDeleteTuesdays With Morrie is such a great book!! And ha ah ah that's funny about your high school people! It's so strange when people do that, but, I have a confession. I did that the other day! I was visiting a college and saw a boy who went my high school the previous year! I didn't say hello because I wasn't sure if he knew me or not.... hahah maybe that's how it is with the people who pretend they don't see you! Maybe you are obviously too cool for them and they know it!! Lol, anyways, it looks like you had a lovely day with all the snow. It's too bad that your sick though... get better soon:).

I stumbled upon your blog and I really it. I wish I had snow at my house. I just started my first fashion link party, called Watch What I'm Wearing, and I would be honored if would add a link at www.watchoutforthewoestmans.blogspot.com. Who knows maybe you will get some new visitors from it as well.
