I bought this dress on the $9.99 sale rack at H&M. It was a circular rack with about 60 of this same dress. I ask myself why? Why are there 60 beautiful Marchesa-inspired dresses on sale for $9.99 at H&M right now? Baffling.


Adding the scrumptious dust-colored rabbit fur jacket was a great way to incorporate tone on tone, one of my favorite usages of color. And the Dolce heels always add a pop in my step. There is so much beauty to be captured in a granny shoe.


We went inside a trinket store next to my apartment that I have never stepped foot in for the three years I've lived there. I don't do well with the idea of dust and potential bugs surrounding me...but Kietrie insisted. The owner is a woman in her 80's who sits behind the clutter all day long. I'm convinced she has not had a sale in over 10 years. 


Grey Gardens?
