VINTAGE VALENTINE

There's a fun vintage store at First Friday we always stop in. A few years back I found these Valentines there. They ranged from $1.00 to $2.50, and I planned on giving them out as Valentines, but somehow misplaced them and didn't find them until weeks after Valentines Day. I've had them sitting in a basket for weeks now anticipating giving them away this year. My favorite part is almost every single one has a name/"to" "from" on the back. It's so fun to imagine the little girls and boys going to school excited on Valentines Day to give these to all their friends. Little "Earl" in his suspenders and sweet "Patty" in her saddle shoes. They still have a box full, so I plan on going back to refill my supply. I hope that one day Dakota will want to give some of these to her most special friends! 

What I wore: Valentines Inspired

Okay, so I actually wore this to our craft show on Saturday. It was a Valentines parade + event, so I chose to step out in my "Valentines Day" outfit a few days early. If you could see me now you'd see me wearing this outfit and only swapping out the rust tights for red. I think I've mentioned it before, but when I find an outfit I like, I recycle it probably 3 or 4 times (sometimes consecutively!) before I move on to something else. In my defense, this is only my second time wearing it! I bought this dress a few weeks ago with Valentines Day in mind, but I just couldn't wait any longer to wear it, so I wore it to the Valentines themed craft fair! One thing I did differently wearing it today is that I tied the belt in the back to make a bow. I think details on the back of dresses are super cute!

One thing I love about this dress is that it has pockets! In my dream closet, every dress I owned would sport pockets. One this I super dislike about this dress is that it's a little big. I like a dress that folds over a little bit and is a tiny bit baggy, but the top of this dress is so overwhelmingly loose. Don't think that's going to stop me from wearing the heck out of it this spring/summer. I'm a sucker for feathers!
