FINALLY went for mani/pedi’s with my girls last Friday! We all did takes on “ring finger mani’s,” painting all our nails one color, with some kind of variation on each ring finger. My pastel-hued Essie mani inspired the outfit above.

Hollah Dollah: Hollywood Nails

Amelia: Simply Smashing from OPI’s Serena Collection with ring finger in Black Shatter from OPI’s Katy Perry Collection

Britt: French Mani with bejeweled ring finger — kinda hard to see :(

Me: Essie Turquoise & Caicos with Essie Fiji ring finger

We were really excited to check out some new fall lines to bring into the store. Unfortunately, my car broke down, en route, about fifteen minutes from my house. Sad story: no BB Dakota and Free People for us! But we decided to seize the opportunity to take some outfit pics in the breakdown lane on 195.


Cody wears a vintage 60′s coat, vintage polka dot trapeze top from Calico, and one of her please+thankyou necklaces


My little Honda goes for a ride on a tow truck


We headed back to my house and took a little walk with the doggies


Vintage 60′s jacket, collage pin by my friend, Amelia, Affordable Scarves circle scarf
Vintage knit gloves


Cody in a vintage boys’ blazer, Calico vintage trapeze top, and American Apparel leggings.


Love this necklace? It’s available on Cody’s Etsy!


Vintage studded booties–Cody scored these from me in one of our swaps! They were headed into store inventory, but had a little too much damage to make the final cut.


I’m wearing: A vintage Anthrologie trapeze top, vintage silk cropped jacket, and H&M flare jeans…


…and one of Cody’s necklaces. This is actually the first one she ever made, and she gave it to me for my birthday :)

Thankfully, my car is okay! Apparently, I put too much oil in it. The moral of the story? CHECK YER DIPSTICK.
