Time is moving so, so quickly!!! I'm moving out of my apartment in two weeks and moving to California in three!!! Ah!!!!!! I don't even want to update you on my packing progress ... I think I have a total of 4 boxes packed (gulp) but, maybe there will be some all-nighters to come. All-nighters and day trips, cuz no way am I missing out on summertime in New England. Yesterday I was hoping to visit New Hampshire with
Jeff but instead we got cupcakes and bubble tea and hung around some little spot in Brookline (I really love living near the
The Emerald Necklace, exploring is always the perfect go-to on uncertain summer days)
This is a little outfit I hope to wear to the Woodstock Fair (northern Connecticut, not New York) which is one of my childhood's summer staples. Typical county fair type stuff. Biggest pumpkin contests, fried food, and carnival rides. There's something about a colorful striped skirt that yells ferris wheel and cotton candy, oh and that zebra gum too!
Anyway, enough chatter. I have so much sewing and packing and sewing to do it's unreal. More to come though - I just realized I'm already two blog posts behind what I have pictures for!
Love that skirt! I used to love Fruit Stripe gum as a kid!
ReplyDeleteYou look perfect darling!!! Summer in New England doesn't last very long so I understand you taking advantage of it! Good look with all your packing! I'm moving to a new house in 11 days so I'm doing lots of packing too :o)
ReplyDeleteahh gezz, the QWEST was me, I for got to sign in ;o)
ReplyDeleteThat outfit is absolutely ideal for a fair. How fun that sounds! I live in California..and so far, I haven't found a lovely fair to attend :/
ReplyDeleteI love your skirt, the colors are wonderful
ReplyDeleteWhat part of California are you moving to/why are you moving? I went to college in LA so lived there for four years (before moving here to Chicago). I love the combo of the colourful skirt and the white top, it seems like you have lots of fun places to explore in New England. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the stripes on your skirt. They just pop! The Emerald Necklace looks like a beautiful place. Mmm, I hope you don't become too stressed packing and getting things done!
ReplyDeleteThat item is as sweet as can be, and YES it does scream ferris wheel and cotton candy. You Americans make me all kinds of envious with your talk of traditional country fairs. x
ReplyDeletethey are such perfect photos.
ReplyDeleteyou are so pretty. (:
xx
You look darling balancing on that wall. And I have never understood why packing has always been so difficult. Unpacking can be even harder!
ReplyDeleteSo clever, I hadn't thought of that gum in years but you are right on the money... or gum with that comparison. Lovely setting and photos.
ReplyDeletea perfect outfit for a summer fete! i wish i had one to go to.. :(
ReplyDeleteloving the stripes!

ReplyDeletewhen and where are you relocating to in california? ive been reading your blog for a little while now, and i live in los angeles, so im quite curious where youll be on my side of the country!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely outfit! I just found your blog and I think it wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI had to smile with this one - I read the Woodstock Fair and surely thought you could not be talking about the fair 2 towns over from me. But you were! How great, it is such a nice fair. Enjoy!
What an adorable outfit, best of luck with the move - don't worry about packing yet, you can do that in one good week. :p)
ReplyDeletesuch a lovely outfit - I love the skirt!
ReplyDeletePacking is always SUCH a pain, but you'll feel better when its done!
Lovely ensemble.
ReplyDeleteYou look so wonderful! Packing is no fun...and unpacking stops being fun after an hour or so, haha. I will have to do that a few times next year :(
ReplyDeleteYou look like you stepped out of a dream! And good luck on your move to California. I'm from the Bay Area and I miss my home state so much!
ReplyDeleteI just love your photos! You have a very talented photo taking friend and your outfits have inspired me to wear my love of vintage more often...thank you for that! :)
ReplyDeleteThe best!! You always have the sweet sweet sweetest outfits! I especially love that skirt! It's so true...Zebra gum (my favorite forever and ever!) and ferris wheels here you come! Maybe a trip to Coney Island too, while you're at it? A-dorable as always!
