RIP Davy Jones

For those of you who haven't heard, Davy Jones of the Monkees died today at 66. It is sad to think he isn't here any more singing his heart out. While I never got to see the Monkees perform together I saw Davy play a few years back and it was wonderful. He also wished me a great first day of college over the radio when my mom called in on my way to move in. *Sighhh. I have had the biggest crush on him since elementary school. Let's all remember him with this video (my personal favorite song of theirs), Day Dream Believer.

Wardrobe Wednesday - LEAP YEAR

HAPPY LEAP DAY/YEAR EVERYONE!! It is that very special day that only rolls around every four years (with the exception of centuries 100,200,...). Personally, I wish I had been born on leap day - I would only be 5 and a half years old right now :] Anywho, I also wish I had a more dramatic and whacky outfit to post - but let's be real, I shot this outfit two weeks ago and it is it's turn. So for today's outfit I give you a thrifted treasure.

I thrifted this little gem about a year back, and haven't worn it yet (whoops). I was instantly drawn to the orange lace and adorable satin bow.

The lining of the dress is unfortunately some synthetic fiber. I am not sure how to get out all the wrinkles without ruining the dress. Any tips? Also, this dress had to sit out in the sun for 3 days to get out the creepy old house smell - oh the joys of thrifting.

Other than those minor complaints I love this dress. I need some fun excuse to wear it. I am also thinking about making it a tad bit shorter...Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday/leap day!! I plan on making the boyfriend something fun for dinner. Do you have any fun plans?

Outfit Details: Dress/Belt - Thrifted | Boots - Mom's hand me downs.
