Retro Train Tracks

04.13.11
The other day I felt like a true 1950’s lady. I woke up with this vision in my head of a striped t-shirt, high-waisted, long skirt, and a pair of pretty heels.

Shirt: H&M; Skirt: Vintage Pendleton, gift from Scott; Heels: Seychelles via Last Chance

I recently picked up these pretty heels at Last Chance in Phoenix. Lately I’ve been pushing myself to try new things, and a great pair of heels was on my list. They were also only $15, so buying them didn’t hurt a bit. Since I’ve been a flats girl for most of my life, walking in them was no easy task. I hung on to Scott’s arm as we walked down the street, and almost tripped on every little crack. They’re going to take some getting used to, but I think they’re worth the practice.


The wind was super fierce this day, and my hair truly did not want to cooperate with me. It wanted to wave wildly, and be free. If I would have been wearing a more flowy skirt, I just know I would have had a Monroe moment. So scandalous!

This week has been for lots of reading, writing, and time spent with my love. I honestly can’t believe how fast time has just blown by this semester. I still have so much work to do, but I know everything will work out. I’m starting on a magazine style article that I’m super excited about (I’ll give you a little hint, it’s a profile piece on one of my favorite ladies), and I’m trying to wrap up taking all the photos I need for my portfolio in my Photojournalism class. Here’s to productivity!
What has your day been like?
