dream boat

a fine day for sailing
Ahhh! I love this skirt! Annalise found it when we were on a thrifting trip a while back. My heart skipped a beat when I saw the print. I'm a lucky lady to have a friend who would handover a piece like this. It's so easy to wear too... it kind of had a life of its own.

It's the wee hours of the morning and I should be sound asleep but i'm all pumped from the amazing weekend I had. Camping with friends at the shore of a lake. It felt like we were the only ones there. We swam all day and ate delicious food all night. a fine day for sailing a fine day for sailing a fine day for sailing a fine day for sailing a fine day for sailing

  7. I love the skirt, such an unusual and awesome nautical print. I like the blue against the peach too, a colour combo that you don't see much but totally works.

  15. I always swoon over novelty prints and this skirt is no exception-- love the color and nautical theme. It's been ages since I've been camping... probably more than 4 years; we used to go camping in Joshua Tree and at the beach when I lived in L.A.

  31. You are looking just fine and dandy. There was no way I could keep the skirt for myself once I saw how your face lit up when you saw it. :D Last night Matt said, "You haven't said Isla's name in a couple days, is everything okay?" haha. I just take that to mean we need to hang out ASAP. I'm going to have Isla withdrawls!!! Photoshoot this afternoon? When do you have school?
