Junk Food Skirt

Hello there! Tonight I'm not doing too much, just going to work out and relax. I'm very excited for this weekend, when Bob and I are going to Adamstown, PA for the day. We aren't decided on the day, but it'll probably be Sunday. Whatever day we don't go, I'm meeting my friend for lunch, I think we're going to Panera.  I haven't been there in a little while, so I'm looking forward to that.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my junk food skirt I purchased on Etsy about a year ago. I also have this print in a short dress. I prefer wearing this longer, full circle skirt. But, I love the print so much that I don't want to part with the dress!  I'm also wearing my Mode Merr shirt I picked up at New England Shake Up last month. I think the keyhole design with the tie top part is really cute. I loveeee my new Rough Seas Design wristlet/purse, pictured below. I now own four of the wristlet/purses (they have a detachable wristlet strap and detachable purse stap) and one of the purses. I just received a bright pink wristlet/purse today, with an ice cream cone print on the front of it.

Apples & Cupcakes

Hello there! Tonight I'm going to work out, run to Target with Bob, and just relax. Friday night I'll be meeting my good friend for a drink, and Saturday night I'm going out to eat at Brew Works in PA, with Bob.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my Pin Up Girl Clothing Lana dress I bought off of a Facebook group. I got the cupcake bolero at the New England Shake Up. It's too cute, and adds som quirk to the solid colour dress. The bolero matches with a lot of  my dresses and skirts, so I'm happy about that. I had seen this fabric on Etsy a lot, and really wanted something made out of it, glad I finally did find something.

29 & Feeling Fine

Hello there! Bob & I had an eventful weekend. We went to the New England Shake Up, in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. We got there Friday night (it's a four hour drive), and left late Sunday morning. The nicest thing about going to these types of events, is blending into the crowd, so to speak. I hate getting stared at, and at these events, if people are looking at me, it's because they appreciate/like my outfits, not because they dont "get it"/think I look weird. It's kind of a surreal feeling, actually, because no one in my area dresses anything like me. I live in quite a rural area. But, even when I've gone into NYC, I haven't seen women dressed "pin-up" ish. I know there are definitely some there, but I just haven't seen them. It's kind of a hard feeling to explain really (being at these events), but it's awesome! It makes me feel less alone...less alone in my interests, I guess I would say. Seeing tons of lovely "pin-up" ladies on Instagram is one thing, but it's a whole other thing in person! Luckily, my husband is so sweet and patient, that he tags along with me to these events. This is only our second time going to an event like this. Viva Las Vegas in April was the first, and I'm pushing to go back this April!! Although, I think he is getting more interested, because this time we listened to a lot of bands, and both really liked all of the music. At Viva, we didn't watch any bands. Going to the NESU, makes me very excited at the possibility of going back to Viva in April! 
I met some lovely ladies this weekend. One of them, Sara, I knew would be going, and we had planned to meet up at some point. She has a blog here, http://saralilyphoto.blogspot.com/. I'm so glad we finally met in person! She's so sweet and nice, just like I thought she would be. Another girl, Christina, introduced herself to me, and told me has been following me on Instagram, and wanted to take a picture with me. Sara and I got to talk to her for awhile. She's also such a sweetheart. The first night, I met two girls who recognized me from the Trashy Diva group I'm in on Facebook. They were also really nice. I'm glad I got to meet all of them. 
The event itself was a lot smaller than Bob & I thought it would be. We knew it would obviously be smaller than Viva, but it really paled in comparision. There were only about 30 cars at the car show, and not a lot of vendors. But, we still had fun! I found a few things to buy too, of course. I had birthday money burning a hole in my pocket! (My birthdays is today). I got a "retroversible" skirt from Julie Mollo. It's yellow one on side & pink on the other! I love it! I've been wanting a sunshine-y shade of yellow skirt for awhile now, as well as a pink one. Now I have two in one! I'm wearing both sides in the pitures below. Bob bought me a bright blue circle skirt from Mode Merr for my birthday. I also bought a cupcake bolero for $20(!), a pair of sunglasses, and a red top, all from Mode Merr. Oh yea, and a cupcake print skirt from Strange Beauty Bombshell, but I don't have it in my possession yet, because she's going to take it in & then ship it to me. (She didn't have my size available at the show.)
The title of my post is because I'm 29 today! Sounds weird to say that!
