outfit post: Lady Be Good


 Old Timey Limey. 
  Dixieland on the Delta. 
  She Wore Seersucker in Sacramento. 
 
  You name it, and I sang it.



 The last days of August have me wearing the last of my summer wardrobe. I am packing up my summer clothes and transitioning into Fall. So goodbye summer whites and brights, farewell seersucker and linens;  until next spring- Lady be good!
Now Wearing: 
  • vintage straw hat, Crimson & Clover
  • clear sunnies, Target
  • skull print corset top, Prevues
  • thrifted seersucker shorts
  • gingham fabric sash
  • polka dot purse, Goodwill
  • Victoriana booties

    That corset top is so gorgeous! I'll be sad to see your Summer wardrobe go - you're pretty much my biggest style inspiration for my upcoming Summer.

    I absolutely love that sugar skull corset--totally something I would wear. I love things that have a sexy shape but an unexpectedly fun print.

    So feminine and so cool - I love the way you put your looks together. We have summer for another month or two, but I am itching to dress for fall.

    Can't wait to see you welcome Fall in style!
    I wish we had proper Fall here......we somehow see the Summer heat getting drenched out by the Monsoon rains, which fizzle out making way for the chill of the Winter!
