wichita

how'd you end up down in tampa, old harley shirt? who brought you on a 1400 mile journey south and then gave you away? an old biker lady who found jesus and gave up her wild, harley'in ways? maybe someone brought you to their aunt cheryl as a souvenir from wichita when they came to visit her in florida. only she found the purple lightning bolts tacky and got rid of it as soon as her tasteless nephew went back home. i think you're perfect, old shirt, and whoever gave you up was a fool.

insta tiki

last night i attended the second annual sunset tiki party, put on by the left coast bartender's guild. this year's party was at postcard inn on st pete beach, and like all of the events put on by the guild, was a hell of a great time. there was so much fun having and rum drinking, in fact, that i didn't manage to get a single shot with an actual camera. luckily, we took oodles of instagrams, and i thought it would be fun to do a little post with a some of them. follow me over in instagram world, too, if you like! @jamiemarie333
my love and i in our tiki party best!







me, my darrell, and our pineapples : )))

alexandria

y'all already know about my affinity for wearing nightgowns as dresses. let's delve a bit deeper into that world, into a sub genre of my obsession: muumuu's. anyone who knows anything knows that muumuu's come in the most amazing prints of all time. take for instance this egyptian-y one. problem is.. they're super large and lengthy, for the most part. solution: cut, cut, cut them into baby muumuu's. the end. and i lived happily ever after. with mini muumuu's.

pinked

hello, long lost friends. i've missed you! my poor, sweet boyfriend, who is the official photographer of all of my style endeavors, has been suffering from a bad case of vertigo. needless to say, he's been in no shape to operate a camera, or even walk straight, for that matter. i've been playing nurse, so i haven't had much of an occasion to dress up, anyway. i did do a bit of thrifting while josh was laying around recovering, though, and i have lots of new treasures to show you in the near future. below are a couple of my aforementioned finds...








pink striped blouse, thrifted. bright pink tennis skirt, thrifted. shoes, sense. clutch, thrifted. sunglasses, thrifted. jewelry, thrifted/gifted.
