TaRosaI love this outfit! You always pick the juiciest colors– and color makes me so happy. The purple scarf that you are wearing actually reminds me of two purple dresses that I found at an estate sale just yesterday that, coincidentally, reminded me of you! You are truly one of the style muses for my new vintage and retro blog/shop, Thriftonista, and this outfit makes it so obvious why. Awesome.

triciawendyb: funny you say that…when i was at parsons, my portfolio instructor said basically the same thing when i wore them with a similar outfit to class one day, he said they sort of took the whole look in a dressier direction. being so bold and gold, it’s little wonder.

jenniferhow on earth do you ride a bike in those clothes?! i have very specific clothing while riding requirements.

triciajennifer: i ride a bike just fine in these clothes? what is so un-bike-rideable about them for you? have you ever been to europe? people wear all sorts of everyday things whilst riding their bikes. got to get from place to place right?

jenniferi dunno; maybe it’s just my riding position. i must ride in flat shoes because i have toe clips, and it seems like everything’s either too tight or too loose. skirts are a no go, and i like jeans but the crotch will start to really hurt depending on what pair i’m wearing. also, tops become a problem with riding up etc, and the boobs are just this whole different issue.
obviously, though, it’s me. because who else could possibly be having this much trouble? haha.

KCi love your shoes! found the exact pair in an oceanside thrift for $12, w/ tags and never worn. been a camper freak since. though they look much cooler on you than my ageing self!
