I Wear Your Grandma's Clothes

Shirt - St. John's Bay (Thrifted) // Skirt - Sorbia (Thrifted) // Belt - Thrifted // Shoes - Rocket Dog (Modcloth-but they're out of stock) // Tights - Charlotte Russe // Earrings - Thrifted // Ring - Gift from my dad

I know the song says grandad, not grandma. But, it's my grandma's shirt. And belt. That woman really knew how to dress. When she passed away my mom and I kept a few of her clothes. My grandma was so creative--she could sew, paint, and DIY anything! I love that I can put on a shirt or a belt and think my grandma wore this. Anyways, sorry for starting out on such a somber note, it's just that these clothes remind me of my grandma. Funny thing is though, this outfit definitely looks like grandma clothes, but she had a much more modern style while I prefer vintage clothing. It's just the different ways we style the same things!

So I think my pictures have been turning out better, but not today. My cell phone camera takes pretty good pictures when there's good lighting. Well, it was really crappy weather all day (It was hailing at one point!!!) and dark by the time I got home...so not so great pictures. Oh well, as soon as I get a summer job I hope to invest in a better quality camera. Exercise and Bible reading...done. Thanks for reading! Hope y'all have a wonderful day!

"I Don't Care if the Sun Don't Shine"








I love this picture except that my sister's dog is in the background... 

This is what happened when I tried to get the dogs to move! They followed me right back to the waterfall--that's their favorite place to sit!

So this is the outfit that I wore on Easter Sunday. It was also my last day of spring break. I had a wonderful break spending time with my family, but I'm ready to go back to school. Ha! Just kidding! I'm totally ready to for summer and to be done with the semester! I'm so glad that break was so late in the semester because now I have only a few weeks left! And, this Sunday I'm actually going to take another break and go with my family to Massanutten Resort!!! I'm so excited not only because it's really nice, but I know there will be some really awesome places to take pictures! I just have to make it a few more days in school. Not to mention my least favorite class was canceled this week...YEAH!! So I'd say it's been a pretty awesome week! Oh yeah, and I'm wearing more dresses..and it's warmish! So yeah, I'm happy!

Back to Easter Sunday...I thought my family looked pretty spiffy this Sunday and I took pictures of my mom and my sister, Laura, to show off their cute outfits :)
