Blooming Bella




 
What a delicious day. Rode my bike around town running errands, and later as a treat stopped by Crimson & Clover to do a little "window shopping." Walked out with an beautiful re-made gold-tone cuff made by Flaming Hag Folkwear. Lovely piece. Must snap a pic and show it off for you. It had a cameo which seemed to go with the plastic cameo hairband (worn as a bracelet) given to me by my awesome neighbor Ari. She and I have matching cameos. 

Tried to straighten up the HQ for Sunday's trunk show. Having a few friends over to come view up close and personal the latest Citizen Rosebud story. All about the rompers, stripes and florals. Then I topped off my day with a lovely visit with a good friend. All I can say is Amaretto Sours tastes great after Thai food. And I'm really lucky to have such wonderful friends in my life.

Wishing you all a fantastic week-end!

Now Wearing: 
  • Rodarte for Target Black Camisole top, Target
  • Vintage 1950's  black-dyed tape-lace sweater, gifted
  • Fritzi 1980's rayon black floral skirt, thrifted

Marta said...

love the skirt !

the Citizen Rosebud said...

thank you. i really do love the floral print on the skirt and the fact that vintage rayon has magical properties to it: it's cools in summer, it warms in winter. and it drapes so beautifully.

Marta, this is a bit more femme than I've been posting, but it feels totally me. I think the lace cardi added alot of the feminine to the outfit's charm. xo. -Bella Q

Thanks! It's quite the feat to keep a pleasant look on your face when you're off your feet!

Such a great outfit! Especially love the skirt, but then I'm a bit bias towards florals. :)
