- Necklace, two birds and a heart – New Orleans, 2003
- Hand holding boquet brooch – Magpie, PDX
- Navy Dress, Trashy Diva, by way of Buffalo Exchange, ATX
- Avocado Green shoes – Remix Vintage Shoes
This is a very New Orleans outfit. I got this necklace on my first trip there in 2003 when I visited to photograph graveyards and drink gin and tonics at Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop in the evenings. When I’m in New Orleans, I always stop by Trashy Diva to see what kind of pretties are there that season. This dress originally had halter straps, but I began sewing it last night and I like the straps sewn strait to the back as it is now.

I’m going to New Orleans in two weeks! I love the photo with your dress floating in the air, you look like you’re gonna fly awaaayyyy.
Love the dress, it’s beautiful. Also love your friend alligator. I don’t understand why more people don’t carry them around either. I recently acquired a large pink octopus named Bob. I carried him around the store awhile before getting him and everyone loved him.
The alligator definitely makes the look!
love love love that picture of bellewether … so plaintive and pretty … and about to be eaten!
