Song of the Flea

Last weekend wore me out! I’m talking… Little Black Dresses On Friday, Cincy Chic hosted an event at Coney Island’s Moonlite Gardens (where I haven’t been since elementary school) to celebrate Summerfair and the ubiquitous Little Black Dress. I ran into plenty of bloggy-friends (what the heck am I supposed to call people I met on the internets?) including Amy, Sara, Kasmira, Asha, was impressed with the lovely atmosphere and the dresses in the fashion...

Turquoise is the color I need to get clean

Vintage dress & clutch, thrifted top, Steven heels I decided to pull out this rarely-worn vintage dress because, really, when is turquoise leather NOT appropriate?

Ridin’ in my crop top

Okay, so in these pictures I’m really just walking/standing/generally looking confused, but since ‘crop top’ rhymes with ‘drop top’ , you start thinking about old Dr. Dre & Snoop videos, and, well…you get the drift. Thrifted top and pants; vintage belt and shoes, Hark+Hark necklace This is the result of my first DIY collection project–I think it turned out pretty well, especially considering the fact that my seamstress is a complete amateur. I also wanted...
