Peddlin' Ideas n' Wares: Jewel toned wearing!

Hello lovely creatures!

Having a good day today, getting my pantry (the abyss) organized and getting some last minute things taken care of before I fly off to Newfoundland, aka: heaven, on Thursday. I’m so excited to be going home, it’s been two summers since I’ve been back. Last summer was spent enjoying Europe. This summer I am looking forward to the salt sea air, the “magic” beach in Cape Freels, chilly evenings, meeting up with my besties, picture taking, road tripping, concert going, wedding crashing (not really, I have an invite, just sounds cooler) sightseeing, beachcombing, and nan’s homemade bread eating. Ahhhh there, I think I’ve covered most of it. I’M SO EXCITED!!!!! So ya, three days and I’m hopping a plane to my kind of paradise! My posting may be a little less because of the festivities, but I’ll try to keep in contact for the most part. If not, then I’ll have oodles to tell on my return and absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?

Right, well enough of my ramblings about my trip, today’s post is another fashion post. I am taking advantage of this fantastic summer heat and wearing my sun dresses as much as I can, which is basically every day. It just makes sense, they are cool, easy, and look supper cute. The dress in this post was an eBay buy. I got it last summer for a decent price, the cost escapes me right now. I love the multicolored bottom, the feminine ruffle of the neck line, and the fact that it has pockets, beautiful DEEP pockets! I teamed it with some purple leggings, navy shoes, and matching accessories. I like how it turned out, the whole outfit has the jewel toned element running through it. The necklace is my favorite piece of the outfit. Its chunkiness has such a presence there’s no need for other jewelry, and it contains all the colors of the outfit, bringing all the pieces together. Had my dad snap the photos this time, we shot by some old trains and tracks just outside of town. I think he did a bang up job, thanks dad! I may get time to squeeze in one more post before I fly off, we’ll see? Chat soon.
