Saturday's errand outfit

This was the last weekend before the wedding, and it was full of errands and unexpectedly getting a dead car battery replaced. One of the errands took us to Wisconsin, where we stopped for lunch at the new Mars Cheese Castle. So all I have time for this week is just a quick outfit post!


I'm wearing a sundress I purchased at VLV this spring, a beige beaded cardigan (because it was actually quite chilly) from Etsy, carrying a wicker basket purse with lucite handles from Etsy, and wearing a pair of shoes that I just purchased from Lauren at Wearing History! They are cream-colored wedges from the 1940s. Aren't they great? I can't wait to wear them in autumn with jeans, a casual sweater and white blouse for a vintage campus look.


The next several days will include last minute projects, cleaning, preparations and trying to decide how the heck to style my bangs for the wedding...you know, the important stuff. ;)

Have a great week, everyone!

  8. Those were my shoes! I'm so excited! I bought them off ebay years ago and they were way too small for me (insert jealousy here ;) and a couple weeks ago the lovely Lauren offered to list them for me with some of her shoes. Yay! After all these years, I'm so happy they found a good home!

    Best wishes for a fabulous wedding and wonderful life together!

  11. I just went to the new castle too! It's funny how even though the bar is 'new' it feels very old...I love it ; )

  17. Dig those shoes. And the whole ensemble, actually! Super cute. I have a purse like that! Mine says "Souvenir of Coral Gardens, Florida" on a tag on the lining, though shows no other sign of being tourist swag. ((shrugs)) Good luck on your pending nuptials! :)
