SWAP SCORE:

few weekends back went to a super legit clothing swap hosted by a new vintage loving gal pal named Jil. she had everyone check in at the door with their items and organize them into categories based on price rage-high end/designer vintage, medium range and casual/lower end. you were given a ticket per piece in each category in turn swapping evenly so everyone left with something equally as awesome as they brought. i scored some really great pieces my favorite being an Australian suede and fur jacket Kate Hudson probably wore in Almost Famous, literally squealed with joy!
another item i went home with was the wacky vintage top below, the bizarrely random pattern immediately caught my eye!

this bag has made an LF.com appearance before but in case you are a new reader-YES IT DOES PLAY MUSIC! and pretty loud too!

all you have to do is simply hook up an ipod and JAM.

don’t you love how tights can make an inappropriately short skirt appropriate?!?!
I DO!

HOPE EVERYONE HAD A FABULOUS VALENTINES DAY!

Date Dress

as a treat for surviving shows at the Mart i allow myself to get a piece from the showroom and it usually ends up being a dress. in between the International Gift and Apparel show (happening now) our Spring supplement started rolling in and when the girls saw the crochet collared polka dot number pictured below they just knew i would be snatching it up-and they were RIGHT!
they called it the “jess dress” for a reason as it’s “sooooo me”- haha!  from the time of purchase i had a particular occasion in mind for the “jess dress” which was a brunch date with a cute boy that ended up turning into a brunch + museum date this past Saturday.

i must say: the dress and the date were fabulous!

if you’re around the Atlanta area and want something interesting and educational to do this weekend i suggest the Michael C. Carlos museum on Emory’s campus! the exhibits include ancient Roman art, ancient Greek art and an Egyptian exhibit with mummies! also for a limited time they have a whole floor of mandala art, though we were super rushed through this section it was very interesting and so intricate!

happy Friday!

bed_7 bed_3 bed_8 bed_1 bed_2 bed_4 bed_5
bought this pretty little lady on sale at Anthropologie and you can say we’ve already hit it off! so soft and silky with a perfect shape and transitional pattern it was a great spontaneous purchase.
as you can see my hair is in it’s awkward growing out stage, sucks but i don’t want to cut it though i need to do something so it doesn’t lay so weird for the next few months. 
these pictures are from Friday night’s date with my boyfriend, we ate a delicious Southwestern meal at Agave-try it out if you’re in the Atlanta area! (great for a date!)
hope yours weekend was splendid!
