Hello Kittens!
Here are some Outfits of the Days from last weekend.
Saturday:
On Saturday Tim and I were working most of the day in the backyard, cutting down the weeds that have gotten out of control, and overall clearing things up. We weren't planning on leaving the house that day so when a friend later invited us over for a casual get together I was a little out of sorts on what to wear. I really just wanted to wear pants that day but at the same time felt that I should wear a dress since I was going out. I'm still not 100% feeling this outfit and as is always the way with an outfit you aren't 100% about, right before we left I thought of a different one that would have been perfect! But really, I just couldn't be bothered changing again! Oh well. So here is my outfit from Saturday. I wore my Bettie Page Atomic Sun dress in Martini print paired with navy capri leggings from
Forever 21, a navy cropped cardigan by MAK from
Modcloth, and navy flats. For a fun finishing touch I added my Edward the Tipsy Elephant brooch by Pinup Girl Clothing which I got from
Retro Glam.

Sunday:
On Sunday Tim and I spent the day in the nearby waterfront town of Alameda. In the morning we were at the once monthly vintage flea market, the
Alameda Point Antiques Faire, then we had lunch at the beach side shopping center, the Town Center, where we did a little window shopping. Then we went to the brand new shopping center, Alameda Landing, and went to
Cream for freshly made ice cream sandwiches! My ice cream sandwich consisted of a turtle cookie, chocolate and vanilla ice cream swirled with caramel, closed off with a white chocolate macadamia cookie, with sprinkles on top. Tim had a snickerdoodle ice cream sandwich with rum raisin ice cream and graham cracker crumble on top. It was delicious at the time but oh too much after! Whenever we go out for ice cream I usually end up taking most of it home and saving it throughout the week but since Alameda is a little bit away from home I ate the whole thing there! While it was delicious, we've been joking all week about how I will go to Alameda again but please don't make me to go Cream!
Anyhow, my Outfit of the Day! Since Saturday was a lot colder than it had been, I was expected some autumn weather and chose to wear my true vintage eyelet brown sheath dress which I got some years ago from
Etsy. After all, I wanted to wear true vintage while at the Antique Faire! Picking up the velvet in the attached velvet belt of the dress, I paired this with velvet mary janes I got from
Urban Outfitters last winter. I also paired with this some super cute Rosita Bonita cat earrings I recently got from
Trashy Diva. For when it got cool I brought along my mohair black cardigan but it never really did get cool enough for it that day.
