my wish for summer is sweaty sunny days


optimistically (sticking to a budget) so far this summer, i have only dropped cash that wasn't from paypal cashouts, on this thrifted 12$ sundress... & i think it was worth it! i might shorten the hem, no? (if i decide to speak to my sewing machine, we are nto on speaking terms at the moment...)
oh how i wish i could get some pretty platform sandals to match, now i'm just being whiny & drooling over my most coveted item i want for the sunny weather (that i'm sure will get started soon enough... sunny sweaty days i'm longing for that is!) i've been waiting what seems forever to get a chance to wear it that the weather was warm enough...

oh i also dropped $5 on a one piece this time around... & am enjoying the modesty of not feeling so self-consious, in contrast to past itsy bitsy bikinis (where my ass was always hanging out)...

  1. WOW! Super cool dress. I have some platform shoes that I have hardly ever worn in size 8 1/2 if I am not mistaken.sorry am visiting my mum now in Florida therefore not home. I bought them at Urban Outfitters.If interested by the offer send me an email at shimmerstolz@hotmail.com and I will email you back with an image.
    They have been seating in my closet forever. Just a thought.
    The color of the shoe is beige, brown. Anyway, have a good day!
    I bought from you in the past a knitted beret which I love.
    I hope this offer does not seem too bizarre especially from a stranger but honestly if it is your shoe size and you like them, it will make my day but no worries if otherwise.

    where do you thrift shop in hamilton? i have only found a few places.
    and the onesie bathing suit...i am just coming to terms with the fact that even tankinis aren't cutting it...that suit of yours is perfection.

  4. I think one peices can be so much more flattering and pretty =]. I've always preferred them hehe. And that dress is great, although I do reckon it would look better with a shortened hem... it's got a great colour and pattern =].

  6. I love the pleating on that dress! Good find! I love the ease of wearing a vintage one-piece too...better than a string bikini any day.
