keepin' on the sunny side

good times with hank williams
(Outfit details: 1950s Saks Fifth Avenue cashmere sweater; Howard's Leather belt; Urban Outfitters skirt; Hue cable knit tights; Vigoss oxfords)

The weather here has been a blustery, snowy, freezing mess of late... it's not exactly cooperating with my daydreams of springtime florals. Tsk tsk, mother nature; let's have some warm breezes and blue skies already. This lovely golden cashmere sweater never fails to brighten my day, however; it's like woolen sunshine! Pretty cozy, too.

This 1950s crinoline is one of favorite pieces; I had to show it off a little!

Detail of the bows on my sweater; it may be about 60 years old, but it's from Saks Fifth Avenue! I am so fancy. (And bony with frizzy hair, apparently. But let's concentrate on that sweater!)

    Beautiful!! I love the colour of your top, and the little bows too, and crinolines are of course wonderful. Now I wish I had long hair too!
