Tin Angels

dress: j. crew, thrifted, tights: urban outfitters, sandals: thrifted, cape: vintage, my mom's
While I'm still in the process of finishing up this semester and applying to colleges (i still have 4 left...ugh) I am also finding time to start this Christmas season off right! This year I'm trying my very hardest to do all the little seasonal things that I always want to do, but never actually do. Last night my mom and I got the tree up and decorated it! I think it looks lovely. We also decorated/iced some yummy sugar cookies. I can't say they look beautiful because I'm not much of an artist with icing... but they sure taste good! I have it in my plans to do much more cookie baking before this holiday season is over.

Anyway I wore this yesterday. :) As you will soon learn if you haven't already - if I'm on the deck and there are not a huge variety of types of shots in my posts... it's because my boyfriend did not take the photos. Or a family member. I'm so spoiled! (but really, the tripod and i are not the best of friends these days) Well, I'm off! ♥ xx

  6. Gorgeous cape, you're lucky to inherit it from your mom. I love the color palette of your outfit too, especially the purple tights.

    Good luck on the college applications, I had to go through the process twice (college and grad school) so understand how stressful it can be!
