Sweeties, I know I’ve been vacant this week. Please forgive me. I’m still wildly preparing for Shecky’s coming up SO SOON. I head for NYC this coming Monday and I’M SO EXCITED (slash: a little freaked out, but working through it)!
Today, I needed to stay casual, but throw in a little spice. I got this new vintage orange sherbet dress from Anissa’s great online shop, Night Owl Vintage. The dress is more for winter, but I didn’t see a problem stealing the belt for a day, to add dimension to an otherwise drab outfit. (I’m telling you people…it’s all about accessorizing! You can seriously transform any normal/boring outfit into something immediately sassy).
(…meet my little pork chops. I’m not trying to demean my feet…I do love the little suckers, but I am trying to get across the point that I stand on my feet all day and when it’s hot and muggy in Portland, my feet will be holding it against me. I do have stools in my studio, but for some reason I prefer to stand…ALL day, sometimes.)

awesome athena shoes— made out of recycled tires and made in Oregon by these cool Peruvian dudes, you can find them at Art Fairs and such.
belt—Night Owl Vintage
pants—Pin Me Apparel
orange spicy owl earrings—betsy & iya
See…with the right accessories, you’re on your way to popping image success (at least for your own entertianment). When I see a glimpse of myself in the mirror today, I feel a surge of orange spice energy a shock of happy.
This feeling then accompanies me through my day and on my way to making NY an incredibly positive and brightly orange experience.

You wear glasses, too? So, so cute on you, as is the punch of orange at your waist and your lobes.
You’re a machine getting ready for this show, girl. Can’t wait to hear all about it.
