Alameda Flea Market!

pants: vintage gap, thrifted, shoes, & belt: goodwill, purse: vintage dooney & burke, antique shop, cardigan: old navy
Hey! So today my mom and I went to the monthly Alameda Flea Market. It was a great day! It's so fun wandering the booths and trying to find deals. :) And we sure did this time. I've been only twice before, and every time seems like a different experience. But each enjoyable! And there is so much inspiration to be found there, as well. Wonderfully stylish people, and unique, interesting items to browse through. Love it.

I wore a more casual look today as I wanted to be warm and comfortable while shopping. It turned out to be a good choice to wear pants because it didn't really warm up till around 2ish, and we were there since 10 in the morning! Luckily I was fine with just a thin cardigan otherwise.

At the flea market I got 3 rings, an adorable copper road runner pin, a pair of earrings, and two vintage dresses (10 dollars for both dresses!). I can definitely call that a successful day! Anywho... I'm off now to go have dinner with Nat and our families; a hopefully good finish to a great day! I hope you all had a brilliant Sunday too! x

    I can't believe you're evening thinking about staying warm! It's sooo hot here. Like anywhere between 35-45. But I am adoring what you are wearing. It's getting me excited for Fall!

    I'm in love with your loafers. And the fact that your mom and you share the same hair cut (just like me and my mom!). Yey for pixie cuts!

    ps. You are totes an honorary member of my book club. In fact, I may have to find a way for bloggers to join in the fun... oh exciting plans in the making!

    I can't even imagine you NOT wearing an "unbloggable" outfit! I mean that whole heartedly. I love every single one of your outfits and looks. You can't do any wrong in my book, even if you're just in a striped tee and pants:)

    love,

    omg, I LOVE your sunglasses! I want them so desperately! And I do agree with Maggie! I usually don't post outfit pictures that very often because my regular outfits consist of jeans and a shirt (BLERGH), but you always look great! I love that so much about your style and about you :) I hope you had a great time with Nat! And I love the picture of the floor with all those letters.
