Atlanta || Coca Cola

Hopefully the photos will speak for themselves, I don't have time to caption them all. These are only a handful, I have another handful from the coca cola factory, plus the aquarium which you'll see soon. 

My Vintage Outfit :)

There's something about long car trips. Something good, and then something bad. I mean when you cram a bunch of people into a small vehicle for a large amount of time you'll get the best and the worst out of them, right? Sometimes I think there's more worse than best but.....;P

On Thursday, eeeaaarrrlly in the morning, like before most of the people that get on shift at Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbin would have even arrived at work, we packed up and headed out. To Atlanta. EXCITING!!!!!!!! I tried to sleep most of the way, as did Grandma and Grandpa who sat on my row, but no one else in the vehicle seemed to get the memo. I guess they were just too excited. I mean, I was incredibly excited but I was also incredibly sleepy. (Not a morning person!) I think it took like 4 or 5 hours to get there, and we did stop for breakfast along the way. We had a great trip up there, and surprisingly didn't get stuck in too much traffic. 

First stop was the COCA COLA factory/plant/museum. I had a BLAST there. More on that in the next post. :) This is going to be an outfit of what I wore to the Coke place :) And what a better outfit to wear to the Coca Cola thing (is it a plant a factory or a museum?) than my vintage outfit! :D

my new camera bag...I can't remember now if I showed it to you yet or not. It's from ebay. :)

my 40's pin that belonged to either my great grandmother or my great great aunt

Ok, they had fabuouse huge ornamant things everywhere. It was really cool looking. They also had some that were hollowed out sort of so you could sit and have your picture taken in them, which I thought was pretty neat.

next time I will need to pull my shirt down, because blously doesn't seem all that flattering :p

it's a full circle skirt, only problem is my petticoat is a little too short for it.

Skirt and shirt: vintage, from that fabric stash I was talking about Pin: vintage, great grandmother Belt: Pink & Blue, Mimi Sunnies: ebay Keds: Off Broadway Shoes Socks: Belk, Mimi Scarf: vintage, thrifted VV Camera bag: ebay wow, I was wearing a lot that day!

Olivia

My very talented figure skating friend, wearing the figure skating dress I made :) So proud *grins* :D 

The old photo filter is a photo saver when there's bad lighting :) And it looks good too!

all the sparkles :)

She's so beautiful :)

look at that skill!!! I would be collapsed with several broken bones if I were to attempt this. And she could spin, and lean down and grab her leg, and she could jump into the air-it was amazing to watch!!! 

I had so much fun making this dress. Thank you Olivia for thinking of me and letting me make your dress! :) You're awesome!

Feeding My Sunglasses Addiction

I'm not sure if 4 pairs of sunglasses is an addiction or not. But I'm not saying I won't buy anymore, so then maybe it is. But anyway, my latest pair ($2.23!) arrived in the mail today from Cheenaah (China, for those of you who weren't aware of what I meant there). And it just clicked, I don't have a sunglasses addiction, I have a cheap sunglasses addiction. Which means sunglasses $5 or under typically from ebay. Glad I cleared that up there :) It's a lesson in patience too, because if you choose free shipping (which I ALWAYS do, you may have to wait up until 2 months for your glasses to arrive.  And because I'm smart (or rather have access to smart people's ideas via the Internet) I decided to paint on them with nail polish. Something plain to something decorated. And because it's nail polish, when I get tired of polka dots, I can just use nail polish remover to take the dots off and then do something else like stripes or flowers. :D sweet eh? Plus, then it would save me another 2 or 3 dollars each time I redecorate, because I won't be buying more sunglasses each time! :P

isn't that a cute shape? 

I apologize for my terrible selfie skills. This my friends is why I never post anything on instagram :P

I hope you are having a great day! I will be posting more outfit photos soon, my camera battery died and at this moment I am unable to find it's charger. But I'll find it soon :) If not I'll have to buy one from Cheenaah and wait 2 months for it to arrive.
