Throw away love and golden years

DRESS: vintage, my mom's || BELT: my dad's || BUCKLE HEELS: UO || MESSENGER: thrifted, salvation army || lacquer BRACELET and lace SOCKS courtesy of Claire's


LOADED POSTTTT!
hahaha. since i've been feeling like the worst blogger EVER. i am packing this post with an outfit that i love, new items, and a sketch i've done.

the dress is my mom's and hard to believe but it's one of the most difficult dresses to put on, EVER. i have to struggle for at least a couple of minutes before changing out of it... weird thing is you can just slip into it!
so, i paired the dress with two of the many items that i got in a package from Claire's recently! they sent me lots of spring accessories that i'm super excited to include in some outfits.

YAY! my dad was cleaning out the garage and he found his old manual SLR from the 80's! i'm excited to start using this film camera soon... once i get batteries and film ;D

i just did this sketch of freja beha erichsen... (sorry.. you probably can't even tell.. lol) from the Miu Miu SS '11 catalogue that i picked up at their store at south coast plaza a couple of months ago. i've been meaning to get back to sketching.. i just haven't had the time.. i should have started doing this at the beginning of spring break! (sadly.. it's the end in two days)

anyways, hope you guys enjoyed this post, and have a good weekend!
PS - it's starting to feel like summer again !
