Mosquitoes and my new H&M Skirt


Blouse: Salvation Army
Locket and skirt: H&M
Tights: Target
Bow: antique store
Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

I spent most of today in Athens listing all of this week's auctions, and I actually have them all up tonight!! I'll post some photos here tomorrow. After that I came to Atlanta to see Kumar and to visit some more thrift stores. He took this photo at an old falling-apart 1920s house on his block with a yard that was overgrown and filled with mosquitoes that kept biting my legs through my tights. So in the next picture you see of me my legs will be even more messed up with mosquito bites than before!

Love the bow. Coco Chanel would approve. I guess it was a big thing of hers - bows and ribbons.

I love how girly your outfits are - that white blouse especially. It takes a lot of fearlessness to tout the romantic pieces you showcase.

Your area has such beautiful settings for photoshoots! I sometimes curse my quasi-urban-meets-struggling-to-meet-the-suburban-status-quo area.

Skirt was well worth the queue at H&M, the way you wear it it looks vintage.
Very pretty.

What a lovely skirt, now they just need to open an H&M in Sydney...

The location is very cool, worth the bites, I think.

I really like the way the bright print on the skirt contrasts with your dark leggings...And I hate mosquitoes more than anything. No joke.

Ahhh, the sleeves on that blouse are precious! Also, if you want to change your 'riotgrrrl' link back to 'Hipster Musings' that would be a-ok with me.

I love the eyelet trim on the blouse & the old-fashioned wallpaper print of the skirt is so pretty. You've such nice thick, wavy hair - perfect for bows (much appreciative envy. :) )
You're lucky you can stand to wear tights in this Ga heat. I'm already longing for Autumn & layers.
