I am absolutely ADORING this girl's blog:
The Black Apple
I LOVE everything she wears and creates... so inspiring!! I think I'm going to purge my wardrobe today.
I've decided that, aside from shoes and socks/tights, buying anything new is against my idea of green (vintage is the embodiment of green), and getting closer to my real style... Because while I like some of the new stuff I see at Target and online, it's hard to know if I'll like it in 10 years when that style has drifted off somewhere in the DO NOT WEAR ether. But if it's vintage, or at the very least inspired by vintage, I can tell if it'll stand the test of time.
I WISH SO MUCH that we had more around this little town besides the good ol' D.I.
Next up for purchase (definitely something I have a lack of) are some good, stompin' boots that I can wear with anything. So far, I haven't found the boots of my dreams yet... still looking. I hope I'll find them before Christmas!
I've also decided to throw out any fingernail polish with any kind of glitter/irridescence (sp?) to it, because they look too modern, and actually last quite a bit less than their creme counterparts. Not to mention I've been obsessed with just red creme fingernails and toenails... makes me think of the old china dolls my mom had growing up and kept for us kids to see (never to play with - kept in their original containers). So precious...
Now if I can just get my hair to grow, maybe I'll start looking like a girl again?

I love that blog. her style is so YOU. Very chic. I'll have to keep my eyes open at thrift town. Better yet, we will have to have a shopping day there soon. Almost finish with school, then I can start thinking about fun stuff again. Like, we need to dye my hair soon.
