Bag and belt? Thrifted Necklace? Thrifted Earrings? Vintage, gift from my parents
I would never have found this vine covered building, if it wasn't right by the site of where I once almost crashed a truck and trailer. Years ago, I was still getting used to driving with the trailer and I learned the lesson of why you need to make wide turns, by almost taking out a wall with my trailer. Now every time I pass by that corner, I chuckle at the memory and the lessons learned and then admire the vine covered building nearby.
I know that the vines can damage the brick and the windows and cause a giant mess but they still look so romantic and pretty. I am trying to convince Matt to let me grow a vine up our house but that is not going very well. In lieu of having the vine covered house myself, I will just pose as if it is mine. Before we took pictures, we were trying to decide if the building was a home or a business. I have taken pictures on someone else's front step before but that was an accident and I try to avoid those awkward encounters. We made some educated guesses, figured it was a business and snapped some quick pictures on the way to dinner. When we were finished with the pictures, Matt told me he had figured out what sort of business was housed in the vine covered building... video surveillance.
Of course it is...

I wish my house was covered in vines! You look beautiful, and I love the beaded belt.
I'm sad that whoever said Hamilton isn't well-dressed never laid his/her eyes on your blog. I bet he/she isn't a cat person, either!
Love the sandals and just bought a pair. Thanks for the link!

That dress is lovely! And I'm pretty jealous of your photo spot, I've yet to find any cool vine covered walls in Denver!
are those sandals comfortable? I'm seriously thinking about byuing them in white
Pretty dress! I love it with the belt.
Tatiana- yes, very comfortable but size down. They will seem tight at first but the leather stretches. At least these ones did...
Eek! Glad you were ok after that accident. These photos are stunning, and I love those large earrings.
I love the hair-do! The earring match perfectly with your dress. You look lovely!
The vine is beautiful and makes a lovely background for these pictures. I love your belt and purse. This is such a pretty outfit. :)
