Grey Gardens in the Springtime

So maybe excessive glitter just isn’t your thing. And that’s okay. I think we can still be friends…
I’m even offering up this little flea market foray as a sort of glitter penance. Something about the vintage print, the blue velvet, and yes, the market, feel very Grey Gardens to me. Grey Gardens with hot pink wedges. I mean we couldn’t go straight to the (fabulous) turbans and 300 cats just yet…

I couldn’t resist this vintage enamel Koi bracelet with all his jewels intact! Definitely a better choice than the slightly cool (but super creepy) Elizabeth Taylor painting I had my eye on…

                           Grey Gardens is oozing romance, and ghosts, and other things.-Little Edie.

Yep. I think this Homart “flashlight” might be in that last category. (or the first, smirk)
I mean, check out my nails!

And the details…
The Outfit: Dress from XXI, Shoes from DV, Headband from American Apparel, Glasses from Illestava, Bracelets vintage + J. Crew.
The Location: Melrose Trading Post

Sandals + Short sleeves are pretty good for February (even in LA) but by the end of our wanderings I had to admit that we’re not quite there yet. Definitely six more weeks of winter, even if winter LA style means I could have added a cardigan (or tights!)

Oh well, a few shivers were worth it to score my new fishy friend!
What’s your favorite flea market find ever?

    You’re so pretty. :) I would LOVE to go to a market like that…I’ve only been to a few flea markets in my life, and I have never bought anything. I hope to do it someday soon!

    You are adorable! I loved the glitter you posted yesterday, I promise :) Your new fishy friend is the perfect score from your outing. I love your sandals and highlighter nails as well.

    Yayy! I LOVE flea markets! This is just my style. And I’m loving the highlighter nails!

    …so glad we can still “maybe” be friends, without a shared love of glitter. Hehe.
