  • Green knit beret – I literally found this in the trash.
  • 1960s rust dress with attached striped collar – Big Bertha’s Bargain Basement, Austin, TX
  • Green belt – Decades Vintage, PDX
  • Black knee socks – Target
  • Green Greta Shoes – Remix Vintage Shoes
  • Black fingernails

It’s the end of the week! Hello! I made it! It’s the last day of my pincurl set so my dirty hair is hiding under this hat!
I very nearly typed “July” instead of January in my header. It is 76F outside and I was lucky enough to get my daily outfit taken when it was somewhat cloudy this morning! I don’t understand Texas, one month it’s bitterly cold, and a few weeks later it’s cotton dress weather again. I’ll be sleeping with just a sheet and the Arkansas Air Conditioning (peppermint and water in a spritzer) on before you know it!
These Remix Shoes have been on my wishlist now for ages! I have been searching for green shoes of any sort for much, much longer. When Fleur posted about them as being on sale last week, I hi-tailed it to Amazon and ordered me some. I really like them so far, although I’ve only worn them with socks. When it gets hot enough to go with out stockings (let’s say, in a week, Austin time, har har) I will let you know how they feel. After this shoot, I re-laced all the way down the front and I like them better… they look less like grandma SAS shoes.

    & of course you both look absolutely adorable! the red & green together are so wonderful – much more “elegant woodland strawberry” than “xmas”

    I share in your green shoe delight! After craving these Re-mixers for too long I finally nabbed a pair on sale at Sacco while in NYT.
    I’ve worn them barefoot around cities and for dancing and haven’t had any probs.

    Love your embroidery art!

    I really love this look on you, then again it’s a look I like on me too. Straight skirt, beret, scarf, very frenchy!
