Today I went on a day out with my mom and sisters, and it was just absolutely wonderful. It was like our last day out together before school starts, in these last few lingering days of summer. First we went to downtown Duluth, and stopped by one of my favorite vintage shops only to find that it's now only open by appointment. It was sad. Buuuut, we decided to go to this antique store across the street. Oh. my. word. It was huge, and was filled with a million antiques and vintage treasures. I walked around it in an enchanted haze...like seriously. I could've looked, browsed, searched, admired, and loved everything in that shop for hours on end. Me and Wendy both found gorgeous vintage suitcases, mine for about $10, and hers for $5. Mine is so beautiful...it's the vintage suitcase of my dreams! I'll be sure to post pics soon. :) Then we went to Ragstock, which is where the above picture is from. If you have one near you, you should really go and check it out. Then we headed off to the mall! It was a really lovely day. :)
I got the amazing shirt dress I'm wearing from Fancy Treehouse earlier this week, and I'm in love with it. It's so sweet and darling, and I've been brainstorming tons of different ways to wear it. It's just so pretty, I couldn't wait until fall to wear it, so I paired it with a nautical inspired cardigan and rolled up the sleeves. And Wendy decided to use my favorite oversized cardy with shorts (one of my fave combinations) which is accompanied by strange stares from people, as from behind it looks like you're not wearing anything. Haha! We were going to take outfit pics downtown, but we were running out of time and me and Wendy were scrambling down the sidewalks with our vintage suitcases, so it didn't work out. So it was photos outside the mall again! :)
