new crochet things!

new flowered headband and a pearl bracelet

Ben Franklin Bridge

Saturday the 21st was Dr. Dog's closing show for the XPoNential festival. Well, it was actually Wilco's show, opened by Avett Brothers, opened by Dr. Dog, but they were reason we went. It took us a bit of while to get out of the hose. The night before, after spending a few hours shredding guitar with Nicole i decided I hated all my clothes, so instead of doing laundry until I found something forgotten about to wear (cause that would just take so much time and effort) I decided to make myself a new outfit! So I showed up at my friends house the next day with my clothes in pieces, and finished them in her basement while she watched old episodes of Gilmore Girls.

We got a bit of a late start, but somehow managed to make it from Lancaster to Camden just in time.

We were pretty happy

It's funny, whenever anyone uses my Nikkormat, once they take a picture they automatically tilt it to check the picture, and you can just see the flicker of confusion flash across their face, its been so long since they took a picture on something that didn't let them see it instantly.

Pulling into the parking lot, every car was playing Dr. Dog, even though they were opener, I guess because they're a Philly band and it was (more or less) Philly turf.

The drive, almost there on the Ben Franklin Bridge.

Maureen's the best because she always drives, even if it means burning gas in traffic jams

I only drink tea when it's flavor is lemon...

Spring is in the air and I am getting antsy. Its still a little chilly somedays but I have foresaken my jackets in favor of sweaters! An alternative that keeps me warm but makes me think its not as cold.

My jeans are thrift, as is my pink and white stripped button down. The heels are target, and the sweater was a gift. I think its from Scotland (maybe Ireland?) I'm not entirely sure but I love the tortoise shell buttons, and apparently all the cable knits mean something but I have forgotten what over time. My jewelry and sunglasses and belt (ECHO) are both vintage, like almost always.

Last I come to my headband. I made it, actually and will making more similar and different to it that I will be selling! My shop should be up soon with a few different styles.

Yellow makes me infinitely happy.

where did all the shadow people go

Spring is in the air, I can practically taste my impending graduation, and there's more and more to do to prepare for college next year. Lets come already summer, I am tired of waiting.

Guess skirt, and H&M top, if you look close you can see the really pretty lace detail around the neck.

My saddle shoes are from candies, and my watch is Urban Outfitters. I made my own headband. I'm planning to open my etsy shop this week for my designs. There willll be more headbands, and some clothes/bags as it progresses, hope you visit!

Ps. my post title comes from one of the most amazing songs ever written, shadow people by Dr. Dog. Their music inspires and influences me in more ways than I can count, enjoy...
