Red Lips Vintage Giveaway!

I have a new giveaway this week from one of my amazing sponsors, Red Lips Vintage!

"Vintage finds for girls with sunny auras and kitten souls, who dream of Paris and ice cream cones, take summertime picnics and bike rides, and savor simplicity and love."

She's offering this cute blue cotton romper, perfect for spring and summer!


bust: 30"
waist: up to 30"
length: 33"

She's got a great assortment of vintage dresses, pants, and accessories, as well as bathing suits– which I think it great! It's so hard to find cute vintage bathing suits and she's got an amazing inventory of really cute ones. I don't think I could pick just one thing from her shop, there are too many fun pieces! Make sure to head to the Red Lips Vintage blog as well, to keep up with all things Red Lips.

To enter just go to the Red Lips Vintage shop and then leave a comment on this post letting me know what your favorite item is! This giveaway will be open until 11 pm AKST Sunday, April 4th. Open to international entrants!

I wanna be where your heart is home

Yup, I still have photos left over from Hawaii! Thank goodness, since my camera situation is kind of a bummer right now. Red hair pictures will have to wait!

I found this top at a little shop/tourist trap in Kihei, and I couldn't figure out if it was amazingly tacky or just amazing. Either way was okay with me. It had the perfect v-neck and the perfect short sleeves (I loathe most t-shirt sleeves. I want to murder whoever invented cap-sleeve t-shirts). The print reminded me of a vintage Hawaiian shirt too, so all aspects considered, it was a must-buy.

I'm interested to see how red hair effects how I dress. Or if it will change how I dress at all. So far I've been just rocking t-shirts and jeans for comfy days at work. I've decide that unless I'm feeling extremely proactive, I'm not going to "dress-up" for work. Not that I consider my usual outfits "dressing up" but they certainly aren't geared towards a 10 hour day in front of a computer. I'm far too lazy/low maintenance for such things. When I was in high school I would wake up like 15 minutes before I had to be out the door. I basically brushed my teeth and put on jeans and a tshirt and my skater shoes and left without looking in the mirror. I should find some "vintage" pictures of me in high school. It could be a fun trip down memory lane!

Okay, before I forget...

Dressin' up to Kill

I'm sure most of you have seen the rest of the Delightful Dozen style this dress. ModCloth was lovely enough to send the Delighful Dozen the Dynamite dress, and we were all going to post on the same day, but my dress decided to take a little jaunt to other places before I found it. It turned out that they had sent it to an address that had the last two numbers switched! So I ran across the street to the apartment complex there and found that address and there it was! It had been sitting on this person's porch for 20 days! I couldn't believe it was still there, they must not use their front door! It was all quite funny to me but I'm glad I finally found it and got to style it!

I love it as a sundress, but it also seemed like it would be really easy to try as a skirt, so I folded under the top and tried it out, and I really like it as a skirt too! I feel like this dress would be really fun to wear to maybe a concert or on a cool date (neither of which I have had the pleasure of attending in many months...). It could be a sweet sundress, but I wanted to kind of rock-and-roll it up by adding the lace and studded belt.

See how the rest of the Delightful Dozen styled it at facebook or the ModCloth blog!

Show and Tell Sunday

Pretty much everything Rhiannon wears is magically ethereal, so it's hard to pick just one image of her to show, but this little nude dress she wore to Barrington Hall last Saturday. She is just so adorable in all her photos, and all her vintage items are to die for.

I'm in love with the Ruche Spring Lookbook. Every Ruche lookbook is amazingly beautiful. I love the wide brim hats and freckles on the model. It's making me so excited for warmer months! Of course it snowed here this afternoon, so I'm cursing the weather.

I found the most amazing art/decor project at Design Sponge the other day...it's an enormous paint-by-number mural! I am going to do this the second I get my own place. Design Sponge is my absolute favorite interior design website. I can't go there very often because I get frustrated that I don't have my own place to decorate! I so miss my old apartment in Spokane. I loved that apartment. Someday I'll have my own place, and when I do, I'll share all my fun interior design projects!

I've been a fan of Tavi's writings for some time now. She recently posted a little photoshoot of herself wearing a gorgeous Miu Miu frock, and I was stunned at how gorgeous she looked. Not that she doesn't look pretty usually, but she looked so grown-up and sophisticated. It was almost a hint of things to come. She's so smart and well spoken that I never really considered her "looks" before, but this girl is going to grow up drop dead gorgeous in a very unique way. I'm excited to see how her style evolves as she grows.

I'd seen these polaroid scarves before and kind of forgot about them, but I just ran across them again and I wish I had the spare cash to just drop hundreds of dollars on a scarf. I love how the polaroid image becomes totally abstracted once you wrap it around your neck.

No Show and Tell Sunday today, I was busy all day doing this:

I'll do my weekly roundup post tomorrow insteadI had time to post it! Have a good Sunday!
