When I first got this dress, I had every intention to play with shibori dying it, but I ended up loving it so much just like it is, I'm going to pass and do that with something else.  I may eventually, but for now I'm going to enjoy it as is.  I guess really, its not a dress.  It's really a tunic.  I think its going to be super cute over leggings and skinny jeans this fall too.  If you want to see another cute way to style it, check out my friend Katelyn wearing the same top here.   It's currently on sale and they only have 9 left in stock

In other news... Bella got into a cat fight yesterday and has not been feeling well since.  I'll be taking her to the vet tomorrow to get checked out.  You can just tell by looking at her she doesn't feel well.  She was going to be going to the vet anyway to get her blood drawn b/c when she went in for her groom last week I asked them to check her weight b/c she has felt lighter to me, and just different, and sure enough she had lost almost 3 pounds since just a few months ago.  We are going to get her blood tested to see if she might have diabetes or anything else.  Fingers crossed its not lymphoma or anything like that.   

I too have been feeling like my body wants to get sick this week.  Allergies have my face all achy and I can feel it creeping in.  Of course the week before we are suppose to take a little vaca, our car breaks down, my cat gets sick, and I might get sick.  Uhhh... no!  Trying to take everything one thing at a time.  This week might be a little nuts, so Ive made myself a huge list of all the things that need to get done.  James and his friend are at pick 'n' pull right now trying to locate some parts for our car.  Hopefully they find them b/c they are expensive new.   

I'm going to try to remain grateful, positive and hopeful throughout the week.  No room for stressing out.  Sometimes life just hands you obstacles and it's up to you to figure out how to make it work. *exhale* 

THREADS // FLORAL LEGGINGS

outfit details: top - gypsy warrior // leggings c/o romwe // boots c/o minnetonka // necklace - spiral drift 


With my obsession for leggings and Novella Royale bell bottoms, I have been in need of some longer tops.  So during all the amazing labor day sales, I scored a few pieces from Gypsy Warrior and F21 for dirt cheap.  This top is one of them.  It's super cozy, almost in between a tshirt and a light sweater material.  If I can keep it clean, I'm sure I'll be wearing it alot.  Actually, two more of the tops I got are white.  What was I thinking?  I love white, but I rarely buy it b/c to be frank, I'm a messy girl.  James will agree with me on that one.  I'm messy when I make art, messy when I cook, messy when I brush my teeth, messy when I eat, pretty much, I'm just a mess.  I'd say half of the shirts in my closet have at least one little stain on them.  I think it just goes along with my fluttery brain.  It's usually thinking about something else while doing anything.   

Oh, and just a little over a day left to enter the Minnetonka giveaway!!  Hurry up and enter if you haven't yet!

Just a casual little outfit... Still loving these shorts I patched up a while back.  Man... I have been tired this week.  I think just trying to do alot in alot of different directions.  I loaded up about 40 pairs of earrings and 50 + necklaces up at our local shops today in time for Labor Day weekend.  Now I am wishing I had the energy to clean my house...

I'll be back tomorrow with a fun giveaway from my friend Moondaughter!
