Tea Party
Leith and I have been trying to have a tea party for the longest time, and so because of that I have felt the need to look for party dresses. Last summer for some reason I wore an old white silk negligee that I stole from my mom and a jean skirt, it just worked well. But for this summer I need to renew my dress collection, and I think something along the lines of these will work.
Lily Kitty tulip dress found on Pixie Market. I like this, however its made of entirely polyester, and that just won't do in the Annapolis humidity. But then again, I will always sacrifice for looking good. 
This cute little thing is from Bluebird Vintage, basically the perfect thing for an afternoon tea party.
I LOVE THIS, I'm all about chiffon. Anzevino and Florence found on 80s Purple. I'm actually thinking about making a dress very similar to this, except pink, but the navy intrigues me.

Something Silly
So my friend Julia came across this website a while back, and it basically was about these Japanese girls dumping their purses onto scanners and then posting the pictures onto the site. Well I got bored tonight and decided to do, nothing much interesting. Vogue, Nylon, composition notebook (that I use for all of my classes), pens, pencils, earrings, keys, Tarte lipgloss (I have Jake and Samantha), Burts Bees chapstick, Lorac lip/cheeck stain ( I have Sheer Emotion), Mat and Nat vegan leather wallet, my passport, exacto knife, and my Watchmen button.

Rain Rain Go AWAY!!
I have been in a torrential downpour for the last week, Georgia is supposed to be in a drought for christs-sake. And because of that I have no rain coat or boots or anything to get me through this mess. So here are some pretty little things to get through this glum time.
A bejeweled rain coat from Emma Cook, I think is what I really need. Like really.

Oh Ed Westwick
So I found this picture of the beautiful Ed Westwick on 2 hot 2 handle via yahoo. Leith thinks its gross, and I would agree. But when I was in Scotland for New Years, I saw many a kilt, and they made the guys look so HOT!! A man in a skirt is a man who is confident, like it made me swoon when I saw them. And of course I can't find a descent picture of one, but just trust me.

Just Moseying Along
Trying to find dresses for summer I came across this little number, now yes it is not exactly the most practical thing ever, but who really cares. My friend L. and I were looking at dress somewhat similar on Bluebird Vintage, but of course it's gone now. So I now have gone on a search for other pretty little things like this.
Now problem with this style is that its hard to find actually vintage pieces in good enough shape, and the possibility of thrifting a descent one seems somewhat slim in my eyes. So what do you do? Well you raid your grandmother's (or even a great-grandma) closet, or their attic. I know that personally I've found some really great pieces, and I've updated them (going as far as wearing them backwards because for some reason it just looks better that way). But if your grandmother unfortunately threw away all of her good work clothes without thinking that her grand-daughter/son would want them in the future, here are few other possiblities.
This is a Tory Burch Fletcher , only problem I see with this is that it is wool, but I personally am one of those freaks that will wear a wool skirt that was definatley made for fall only in the summer, because it looks better without tights. So with this I feel the same, I would rough the humid weather of Maryland and wear this on an evening out.
Now yes this not quite 60s work place but there was something about this Miu Miu dress that caught my attention, it was probably the pockets. But I love the high collar, and it would be something that could easily be worn to work, and then move to night, or just for night. And another good thing about this dress is that you would just need to throw it on.
