What I'm Wearing

top: J. Perse
skirt: vintage
shoes: vintage

My boyfriend and I went on a date to one of our favorite stores in town. The downstairs in an architectural salvage store filled to the brim with old doors, stained glass windows, antique stoves and boxes of glass doorknobs. But my favorite part is upstairs where they keep all the vintage knick-knacks, dishes and books. I always want to take everything home with me!

    Cutest skirt. I still have my copy of Scuffy the Tugboat around somewhere...

    I'd also just like to mention that I love your tattoo. Have you ever done a post about it/its inspiration?

    Thanks for all of your comments!

    Missy: I use a Canon Powershot.

    strikematch: I haven't done a post on m tattoo but I get lots of questions about it so maybe I will. Thanks!

    It's so funny to me that several of you have pointed out that Perse means ass in Finnish. When I lived in LA, I worked for the Perse family and I can tell you that Perse does indeed equal ass. Ha!
