American Lights

Here are a few pictures taken last fourth of July. 

My boyfriend & I were celebrating with a couple of 6-packs of Anchor Steams and some sparklers. The dress is a Butt Ugly original. It's made out of a vintage real-life American flag, beautiful linen. It was first a nice A-line skirt, but I added gingham straps and turned it into a shift. I'm happy with the turn-out.

So enjoy my compatriots, the Stars & Stripes, ala the Citizen Rosebud.

    I love the dress! Especially that it is made from our flag.

    You can't beat red, white & blue for style!
