This was the perfect comfy outfit for a day of working in my studio and thrifting.
A cropped, super soft and thin jersey hoodie under a cream-colored jersey pinafore, all layered over one of my favorite vintage half-slips for good measure.
Add skeleton key and black china flats and off to Grandmother's we go.
PS: Thanks for the warm welcome ;)

Hi Emily!
I love this blog!! You have fantastic fashion sense :-)
I'm always on the lookout for empire waste dresses, but don't seem to have any luck finding them. If you could recommend a few places (or even just one!) that would be reallllly great! :-)
