It’s all about the bun today, kids. Come on over and say hello at Elsie Flannigan’s A Beautiful Mess. I’ll be back later with Wardrobe Wednesday!

Noir Ohio Vintage is one of those shops I’ve been admiring from afar for a couple of years now. The styling of their updates is always impeccable, but a lot of their inventory is a bit too edgy for my wardrobe comfort zone. But this last update makes me wish I could drop a size in a minute to fit into any and all of these things. My closet doors are always open, ladies.

P.S. I’ll be getting my own vintage shop loaded up and gaining momentum in my own neck of the Ohio woods quite soon!

My love for 50s and 60s fashion, and my need for a fresh look, has prompted me to cut short (no pun intended) the process of growing out of my bangs. I found myself wearing clothes that don’t suit me and leaving frocks I adore in the back of my closet. It finally occurred to be that I missed my bangs. I didn’t feel like “me” without them! So out came the scissors, snipping away four months of growth! Now I have super short bangs that I feel are perfectly suited to my ideal Spring look. Pictures to come along with today’s Wardrobe Wednesday post!
