orange calico tent
I think I might always be fond of tent dress minis. This particular dress was once a moo-moo, but it looks much better shortened. These photos were taken around my hood. There would have a been a cute orange plastic with leather trim handbag in these photos (recently thrifted) but I left it at Starbucks and only noticed it was missing once we got home. Pete was so sweet - he ran all the way back & luckily my new purse was still there. I was hobbling pretty close behind him. Turns out these vintage Cherokee platforms were not as comfortable as I recalled, so I was walking barefoot, which I don't really mind in a natural setting, but urban barefoot walking can be pretty gross. But in the end, everything worked out, as it usually does.

Lovely dress wish I could get away with tent dresses, glad you got your handbag back, I never find heels comfortable! x
ReplyDeleteCute calico, and i like these photos.
ReplyDeleteThe dress looks awesome. But I really love the pictures, so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt was born to be short, what a darling little dress! It suits you.
ReplyDeleteAs for urban barefoot strolls, yes, do I ever know what you mean! I am blissful to be barefoot indoors, or in grass, or sand, etc ... but I once walked for hours in Barcelona half-barefoot. I was lost, and my sandal was rubbing a blister, so terribly so, that I couldn't take another step with my shoe on, so I removed it, and only the one, but thought it best not to subject both my feet to the city's streets, and accepted the strange stares, instead.
Oh, that dress and sandals bring back some great memories. I had a few pairs of Cherokee wedges that I wore all of the time. I really miss those days. I'm wondering if I can find a pair like I use to have on the web.
ReplyDeleteWould you be willing to sell your Cherokees?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad my outfit brought back some fond memories for you, Melinda. Unfortunately, I already sold my Cherokees. You should be able to find some on Ebay or Etsy, I imagine.
ReplyDeleteYes, they did bring back some great memories. Thanks, Crystal.
ReplyDeleteIf you happen to run across another pair of Cherokees, please let me know. Thanks, Crystal
