homemade





vintage handmade dress: thrifted
belt: thrifted
locket: thrifted
sandals: clarks


This is the last day of my vacation... It will be hard to get up for work again tomorrow morning but I couldn't have had a nicer week off! On Friday my Mom and I took the ferry to Nova Scotia to see my Opa (Dutch for "grandfather"). We had a nice little visit in Pictou County. I stopped at a couple thrift stores in New Glasgow as well, which is where I found this dress for $2.88. Nova Scotia thrift stores are so cheap, I tell ya... This little frock is handmade and so nice and cool for the hot sunny weather we keep having. And I mean KEEP having! I can't remember the last summer where we've had so many nice days! I'm actually hoping we have a few big wet rainy days soon, for the sake of everyone's farms and gardens.




I took my camera with me to NS. It's so embarrassing that I only use this big honking DSLR to take blog photos.








me and opa!!
