THREADS 5.16.12

My darling sister took these pictures for me on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Thank you, sister! This is such a "me" outfit. I love mixing patterns, textures and layers, feeling comfortable, and throwing in a dash of my favorite accessories.

I finally broke out my ombre sparkle dress. It was a little much to have the full sparkle dress so I slipped my favorite pleated skirt over it to give my outfit just a touch of shine. :) Roots and Feathers is quickly becoming my favorite jewelry shop. I am in love with Laura's beautiful, bohemian inspired pieces. I'm wearing a custom single feather earring and arrow necklace by her. Her pieces fit into my wardrobe perfectly...and there's just something about her handmade stuff; it has so much spirit! I love reading Laura's blog, too. I think that's why I feel such a connection to her jewelry. They are very special pieces to me. :)

I'm so anxious for the weather to shape up here in Atlanta. I've got some summer dresses waiting to make their outdoor debut! --- On a total side note, my best friend is getting married next month!! She is having a gorgeous wedding outdoors at a barn in north Georgia. I'm so in love with her venue. I can't wait to wear my minty chiffon bridesmaid dress and coral pumps on the big day!
