come fly with me.
Naturally Halloween is my favorite holiday as a lover of fashion and dressing up. Halloween is a big deal to me(see years previous here and here) and this year I decided to dress up as a Pan Am stewardess. I was inspired by the TV show Pan Am and my love of airports(except the invasive security checks, no thank you) and the urge I have been having this year to work in an airport(if only Jet Blue had uniforms like the Pan Am stewardesses in the 1960′s). And although I am going against my trend of dressing as a man and woman every other year, I knew I had to do it this year if I was gonna do it at all, so I went for it! My costume was put together on little time and money because I was certainly not going to drop $1,500 plus on an authentic Pan Am uniform on Ebay(oh yeah that happened!). I had a lot of fun with it and felt very in character, confident and poised like a real Pan Am stewardess. Happy Halloween!

on the road again.
Some more photos from my travels this summer that I pulled out of my
as happy as pappy with his trains.
This summer a railroad attraction opened up near where I vacation in upstate, NY. Once I heard that Railroads On Parade existed I knew I had to go after visiting Roadside America in 2009. So I popped on the vintage train printed dress I fatefully packed and took my cheesy dressed self off to be swept away for an hour to see some miniature trains and miniature people.
sleep till late, i won’t mind if we do nothing today.
Oh summer I love you so even though you break my heart as you come and go.

finally they found their color.
I was feeling a little adventurous when I got dressed that morning to go estate sailing. This is my reaction to the bright, bold, color-blocking, un-matching trend…pastels

White eyelet oxfords – Steve Madden, I remember when I found these online for super cheap I thought they looked so Anthropologie. They are nicely made like the shoes Anthro carries too!

2 ring circus.
Recently I did something I haven’t done in a very, very long time…I went to the circus. I felt like a kid again munching on cotton candy, popcorn AND a snow cone under the big top and enjoying the tigers, clowns and acrobats. It was really nice to see that not much had changed over the years, just like me ba dum psh, except my age ba dum psh
Even though it was extremely hot out(hence bad hair) I had sooo much fun!

vintage toppers for your topper!
I love(and kinda need) to wear something vintage at all times, so I love wearing vintage hats. You can quickly throw on an antique hat and transform a new dress you bought yesterday. With this huge batch of hats I listed, there’s sure to be one suited for every style!
