Sleepyheads.


Today, Caleigh and I slept in until noon (being up until about 4am doing things like learning the single ladies dance...) We ate waffles for breakfast and watched glee, then we got all dolled up and headed out in her old Lincoln (ultimate grandpa car) to search out a place to take some photos. We ended up out in the middle of nowhere and found tons of boxes that had been dumped...full of clothes. Is it gross that we threw a ton of it in her trunk, laughing hysterically at our fantastic-ish find, and hurried home to wash everything (twice)? We were amazed and very very happy. It was like our own personal salvation army.

PS: Can you spot our matching friendship bracelets?

Dress: Silver Screen Vintage

  3. Wow, totally not gross! Totally fun and cool! I mean if you found a ton of clothes in a ditch covered in spaghetti, that would be gross. But in boxes? So cool. I wonder what happened!

    Also, you both look totally fantastic. Oh, and I must see this Single Ladies dance! Which, btw, seems a very good reason to stay up until 4 am!

  11. It's incredible that you found all those clothes! It was the thrifting gods recognizing your thrifting talent and rewarding you. My mom is forever talking of the ever-present THRIFTING GODS (they are very interested in karma, apparently) and I'm starting to think they exist.
