ADORN ME // CUSTOMER LOVE

Alicia Thiede wearing Roots & Feathers

I'm so excited to introduce a little series here on the blog dedicated to my most loyal Roots & Feathers customers!  Over the years I have had a few customers who grown quite the collections of my work, and I must say, rad girls tend to be behind the scences!  So I thought it would be fun to get to know some of them and see how they style my work.  We are kicking this off with the soulful, traveling gypsy, Alicia Thiede of Milagro Girl.

My family and I live full time in an RV, traveling and exploring along the way. I’m a true gypsy soul. With such limited space and the ability to only have things that are beautiful (or useful) l I am in love with Roots and Feathers. I wish I could explain to you the way it feels to wear what Laura creates. It’s like there are little bits of magic woven in. When I received my Luna Dreams necklace I fell head over heals. My friend Hillary gifted me the feather necklace that I’m wearing in my new blog banner and while the photos that Laura uses are so stunning, they can’t begin to capture the quality and beauty of her work. Life in my motorhome is cozy and I love these so much that I leave them all dangling from the cabinet knobs above my bed. I cannot wait to add more to my collection. These are by far some of my most treasured belongings.

JAMESTOWN REVIVAL

Jamestown Revival tickets

A little over a month ago James surprised me with tickets to see Jamestown Revival at Sam Burger Joint.  Needless to say I was one happy girl, and it was hard to wait a month for it to roll around.  I actually just heard about them a few months ago.  I think they played on one of my pandora stations and everytime I heard one of their songs I loved it.  A few weeks ago James downloaded the digital version of their album and Ive been listening to it almost daily since. 

Ready for Jamestown Revival

Jamestown Revival

They were so good live.  So fucking good.  I couldn't stop thinking about the show for two days straight afterwards.  Ive seen alot of really good live shows in my life, including Neil Young, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Steve Earle, Willie Nelson, etc... and I enjoyed this show just as much as any of those.  I'm sure these guys are going to explode at some point, so it was really great to see them while they are still a but less known b/c it was a great intimate show.  They told funny jokes and talked a bit about what each song was about, which I love when seeing a show.  Getting more of the back story always makes things a bit more real and intimate.  We got a chance to talk to the guys after the show and they were the NICEST folks around.  Seriously nice guys.

Jamestown Revival Tee

I was happy to walk away with the physical copy of the album, which is adorable and looks like a mini vinyl.  I really wanted to get the vinyl too but I couldn't afford it all!  I did snag this rad guys tee though which I won't lie, I wore 3 days in a row when I got home b/c its sooooo comfy. 

It was the best date night.  The best surprise.  A great show.  I really really really hope they come back to San Antonio on their next tour.  I will go see these talented Texas native boys any day.

outfit details:  romper c/o gypsy soul collective // shoes - floggs (gifted to me by my friend katelyn!!!) // belt - thrift score // necklace - gypsy warrior // hat - lulu*s.com // hatband - victory jewelry


I'm so in love with this little romper.  Its the perfect print and color, and the fabric just feels good on.  The necklace is very low and open, so it could be really cute over a bathing suit, or pinned together like I have it worn here.  I love Gypsy Soul Collective's little shop.  Such a good selection of finds.  They also sell a Roots & Feathers exclusive moon dreamcatcher necklace that you wont find in my shop!  I'm currently daydreaming about slipping into this, this & this.  Ahhh... such cute stuff!  (They are having a Memorial Day sale right now... Free Shipping on all orders, plus a free Boho Cross Over Bag with all orders over $75 - enter the code THANK YOU at checkout)

And, how sweet is katelyn for gifting me these Floggs?  So in love.  I think they look mighty fine with Victory Jewelry's concho hat band.  (a little something that will be featured in one of my Bohemian Collective lookbooks coming up)...  Getting super excited about my shoots coming up!
