rainy sunday


Today was rainy and cold, but there's something different about the air. The birds are chirping, and—even when it's hiding—the sun's a little brighter. Molly and I went thrifting, stopped for brunch, and spent an hour or two at the garden center. I collected some night dresses, terra cotta pots, and pretty patterned textiles (things a lot like this and this). And then I picked up a plant that bears a slight resemblance to myself. You'll see.

half-price mondays





 

Molly and I made a game plan before this thrifting adventure. My mental list consisted of: chunky knits, pretty beige night things, and pots to grow new plants (so inspired by Lotte). And I followed Alexa Chung's advice, and—very successfully—looked for sweaters in the little boy's section. For only $10, I got everything pictured above, plus the treasure-hunt-satisfaction that is the beauty of thrifting. I'm particularly in love with the soft pink nightgown find. I love the little boobs; they're perfect for my little boobs.
