~ georgia on my mind ~

Today I took a little day-trip to Thomasville, GA for good food, awesome shopping, and some quality time with my mama.  

{target jeans, thrift shop sweater, old navy cardigan, target hat and purse, and converse all stars}

We went to all our favorite shops, did lots of laughing, and found some vintage treasures!
After spotting three vintage hats (that came home with me), I found a box of letters, telegrams, and photos, all from the same woman: Georgetta Smith.


It was so sad seeing a lifetime of memories crammed into a shoe box.  There were wedding photos, photos of a man in uniform, a group of girls playing tennis, a ship leaving port, wartime letters, and a telegram from France.


It's a good reminder to never get so busy that you overlook the little moments in life.  In the grande scheme of things, the little moments are just as important as the big moments.  And they both end up in the shoe box.

~ all stars ~

This morning I broke out my new chucks for a meeting on campus, doctor appointment, and miscellaneous errand-running.  They're perfect!  So many different ways you can wear them - with modern, AND vintage clothing.


Today I opted to wear my uniform - jeans, a black/white striped top, and my favorite Old Navy camel colored cardigan.  


Next I'm gonna try these combinations:

Perfect outfit! Beige trench coat, nautical stripes, red pants and white converse sneakers.

Black dress + white Converse shoes

But I really can't wait to wear them with a vintage skirt, and sweater!


And for summer, I can see them paired with a patterned dresses and some fabulous shades:


There are so many options - perfect for someone like me, whose style seems to change daily!
